He's definitely defensive.

Yes, defending one's position tends to be defensive, and he does it well - he clarified, illuminated, and didn't budge.

Most importantly, he has verified sources and credibility. The critique he's responding too was a lot of fluff, but no traceable substance.

Pull in ISU, KSU, Kansas, Missouri, Memphis and Central Florida.


Full list of schools??? Because with the SEC stealing from the ACC(Which means the ACC is going to steal more from the Big East) and Big 10 stealing from the Big East, you're running out of teams fast.

Why the heck do you assume the ACC can pull schools from the Big East at will? If the Big East expands first and makes a motion to add a TV network, there is no reason for a team to leave for the ACC IMO.

How can the Big East survive if the ACC decides to go to 16 teams?

Easy. Take these four teams. Tagliabou can then get some sort of TV deal that will be strong enough to hold the teams possibly leaving in place.

First, the SEC would have to expand which right now is not being heavily discussed. Also, why would they want to expand. They have already signed a huge TV contract. Adding more teams simply cuts that revenue to each school. If you are an ACC team, why do you want to go to the SEC? They don't really field a very competitive football conference anyway. Georgia Tech is your champion? Really?

I also have to wonder what your motive is here since you haven't really talked much about this subject.
