When the B1G raids the ACC again, stealing a couple more "traditional" ACC teams, being the top dog in a weak ACC South division will have little appeal for the Dukies. With the north clickians (UNC) on a 4-5 year "death penalty" from the NCAA (unless Roy can get SMU or Miami to take the heat for UNC's 20 year cheating campaign), the thrill will be gone for Duke. There's no fun in playing BC, S'cuse, n Pitt of the ACC Frozen North division. The Dukies will forfeit a bit of cash and accept an offer to join the Big East - likeminded small, private, and basketball 1st schools in a basketball 1st league. Coming to Val Ackerman and NYC within the next 2-3 years, if not sooner.
New Duke head coach Woj-a-Hurley will welcome the opportunity (no Capel, no Dawkins, no black HC at Duke) to charter a new chapter of Duke history in the new BE.
I'm guessing Duke & Vandy or Gonzaga, or maybe even Memphis. No SLU - no Deighton - no VCR U.

I would like to meet you in real life. Seems like it might be a fun time.
You going in body armor for that one?

@DanWolken "I’ll say this. Several admins at ACC schools are worried that the Power 5 is really a Power 4 and they’re on the outside. This is a big deal"
@DanWolken "And that is not me interpreting. The term “Power 4” has been uttered to me by high ranking officials at multiple ACC schools."
@DanWolken "It’s not about the playoff. It’s about revenue. The ACC is No. 5"
@DanWolken "Again, it’s not the football product. The SEC $$ is getting bigger every year. The Big Ten is about to get paid. The ACC is falling behind."

However, should others (FSU, Clemson, Va Tch, etc.) bolt that would merely expedite the ACC demise. It is interesting that some there think they are behind the curve revenues wise.
