Also, literally nobody has called or taken a call from Charlottesville.

Doesn't surprise me one bit. UVa leaders always seem to be lagging behind when thinking about the future. If this wasn't football driven, I feel UVa would be very attractive to a conference looking to expand. UVa is one of the top revenue producing schools in the nation over the past 5 years, just behind FSU.

Louisville with $87 mil in revenue. WTF. Papa Johns must be forking over serious cash.

They also have $82 mil in expenses. WTF could Louisville be spending that on??

Actually KFC is the one forking over the cash here lately. They just opened the new KFC Yum! Center where they play basketball.

And I couldn't be happier. Seriously owning them for 13 years or whatever it is isn't enough. I'd love for them to just abandon football altogether and be the only one in the state.

So, if they just wait it out, can they just collect the buyout from everyone else as they leave? Hell, they could play regional, lower-revenue girly sports and frolic all over the lawn to their little hearts' content!

Atlantic Cavaliers Conference, where Hoos are undefeated every year in everything, because no other conference wants curling and synchronized swimming.

Here we go again....

#Hokies AD Jim Weaver said this afternoon that he has not discussed conference options with anyone.

Weaver: "We believe the (#ACC) is very stable and we believe in the leadership of the conference."

one of the most absurd quotes i've ever seen. ACC and "very stable" in the same sentence? wtf?

The expansion news, be it FSU & the BIG12 or anybody else, has seemed to go quiet.

Forty six will fight #GodsConference till the last minute bc he is a union sympathizer, really likes boring football, and enjoys cold weather.
