If you actually think that Louisville, NC State, VT, PITT, and GT are going to willingly commit financial seppuku to join an inferior Big 12 then there is no reasoning with you.  

The ACC isn't going anywhere b/c (thankfully) the commissioner isn't a total idiot.  Sorry champ but them's the breaks.

Those schools you mentioned have already reached out to The Big 12.

Also Louisville and Pitt have 100+ year historic rivalries with Cincy and WVU respectively. Keg of Nails and Backyard Brawl will both be owned by the Big 12 soon enough.

The FSU/Clemson lawsuits are hilariously bad as proven out by a sitting judge in Tallahassee telling FSU to mediate with the ACC, in large part due to the fact that the grounds for the suit are beyond frivolous.

I know the ACC means a lot to you since your school has been a member for so long, but that judge sending the case to mediation has nothing to do with the merits of the suit. It is his normal practice.

“I send every case to mediation except mortgage foreclosures. This is not being done any differently.” -- Judge John C. Cooper

The Florida attorney general has sued the ACC, saying the conference's media rights contracts and ESPN agreements must be made public under the laws of the state.

I look forward to hearing from @SMU2006 how this makes it even more certain the ACC will prevail.
