It's in our best interest to stay in the ACC. He said we would go to the playoffs every year but would seldom go in the Big Ten.

Great, a 1st round road game every year because the ACC will be a third rate G5 level football conference. Sorry, no thanks.

Clemson would be a virtual lock every year they won the conf. We would have been the 3 seed this past year under that same formula. Clemson is fine from a playoff perspective - the reason it is considering leaving is $ - that’s it

Yes and that DJ could have been been one of the best Clemson quarterbacks of all time if not for a bad O Line, bad WRs, etc, etc…..

year. He'd hack his tongue out with a dull, rusty butter knife before he'd admit it today of course. Like always.
But I heard him say it.

Walt is awful....so we stay in the ACC making 50 mil less per year then get drubbed in the first round against OSU, BAMA, UGA, etc.
Money talks and if we want to stay relevant we need a seat at the expansion table. I hate it buts its reality.

mich, ohio state, penn state, fsu and us in no particular order. plus you would have to assume our recruiting could get better with more cash and being able to sell playing against those four teams

Don't forget USC and Oregon in that upper echelon. It would be even bit as hard to win as the SEC. But a top 3 finish probably gets you in

Being in the ACC has become bad for business. If it were such a great place to be others would be interested in joining.

How we'd become a mid-major without the ability to keep up with the big two. Walt wors for the ACC. he gives the soft interviews like Pack does now. They know who signs the checks.

Walt is stuck in 2012. Yeah when this conference realignment stuff was happening back then everyone knew then that it was still in our best interest to stay in the ACC. Well now it is abundantly clear to get out or get left behind. 10 mil a year wasn’t a large enough deficit to overcome. 50 mil a year is.
Will it be harder? Yeah. But with a 12 team playoff and more than likely an even larger expanded field in the future you can have a couple losses and still get in if we are in the SEC or B1G. The ACC will become a group of 5 conference.

How do you listen to that crap? I tried to listen to Mickey this morning but he constantly repeated himself. It was unbearable! Flipped back over to John Boy and Billy.

He wants to say FSU is better than and will beat Clemson this year so bad he can't stand it, but being a homer station, he can't.

I really "want" to like Walt because I enjoy listening to football talk on the drive home. However, he's trying hard to convince me otherwise.
Yesterday (07-31-23) was a great example. I heard a portion of his discussion with Morgan Thomas. Walt just comes across as arrogant and demeaning when he disagrees with someone. I think it's borderline bullying, with the way he interrupts them.

I'd like to buy Walt for what he's worth...
Aug 1, 2023, 8:42 AM

and then sell him for what he thinks he's worth.
Walt is certainly entitled to his opinion and we could all agree with him, but then, we'd all be wrong.
