Excuse me? I can't think of a single Big East football-playing school that would turn down an ACC bid.
It's 155 mill. I think the Big East could get more than that, especially when you consider the basketball conference they would have in this scenario.
I agree right now, but if you take away FSU, GT, or Maryland with the possibility of Miami that conference looks a lot less appealing.
What ACC are we referring to? The current one? Or the ACC after Big Telly and the SEC take a few teams? Why do the Big East TV's not count? If Tagliabue is as good people think, they should.
Either way, it is a threat to ISU...from ISU's perspective it is semantics on whether the ACC morphs into the Big East or the inverse. We could be left out.

This would be the biggest benefit to ISU. With a strong commissioner any league can survive. With the areas involved, the Big East could start a pretty good TV network.
I think the Big East has the best potential for TV revenue and would be a power conference with the remaining Big XII team. Run the football schedule like the Big XII does, the have 2 seperate conference for basketball (NFC / AFC style) and the top 4 teams from each half to the conference tournement.

I hope our chances are better than 1 in 1 million, but I couldn't resist.
