There is also some SEC rumblings going on

even though they haven't quite developed legs like the big 12 deal seems to have.

The VT to SEC rumors are starting to resurface. Also surprisingly NCST has came up. As you know and I have stated many times these were my two picks from the start to join the SEC. NCST gives you the north carolina footprint and TV market that I think you really need. They are also the only realistic school to pull from NC. Others won't leave due to b-ball. VT is a good football program with the potential to be great if they can use the SEC angle in recruiting. They also expand your TV market further north. I was talking to Chris Pless the other day and he had heard the rumblings too. He actually brought it up. He thinks NCST would lock down the state of NC in recruiting with a move to the SEC. I brought up the fact that it could potentially help our programs with recruiting in NC because NCST can't get them all and no one would want to go to a UNC for football if they are in the ACC after the expansions have settled. He agreed. Could be wishful thinking on my part because I want nothing more than for UNC to fail.

Anyway all that could be talk about nothing and it definitely doesn't seem as legit as the big 12 talks. Still interesting to say the least
