MIZZOUEXPANSIONAPALOOZA 2011™: The ACC (!) Makes the First Move


Yeah, my thoughts exactly.

During my freshman year, living in Schurz Hall, one of the more popular games on my floor (1st) was "RISK." I lived with the Engineering FIG (don't ask how) and this was a game that they played. A lot. I never actually played, I just watched. I didn't quite get it.

It feels, with EXPANSIONAPALOOZA, that all of these presidents and conference commissionners are just playing a huge game of RISK.

Well, the ACC apparently grabbed the three red dice and decided to attack the Big East, a maneuver that they successfully pulled off in 2004 by grabbing Boston College, Miami and Virginia Tech. Granted the on-field outcome has not been as successful as the coup was.

ACC presidents officially accepted Syracuse and Pitt into the conference, with an announcement to come later today, according to USA Today. Also in that USA Today article, it mentions that the ACC wants to go to 16, and that the teams on the radar are...UConn...and Rutgers?

Oh, and Texas also made a pitch to the ACC. Can't forget about that.

Again, I refer to the Vince Lombardi clip above: What the hell is going on here?

Star-divide

My major bone of contention with all of this is that it is taking place during the season. Even on a weekend where there were lots of lackluster games, I'm frustrated that I had to spend as much time looking down at the crawl as I did looking up at the action on the field.

That's inexcuseable. It's appalling to me that the egos involved in the leadership of these leagues, some of the people claiming that they try to do things "for the kids" are now allowing their dick swinging to block out the achievements of those same "kids."

Make no mistake about it: all this is rich old men puffing out their chests and trying to one up each other. There is absolutely no reason for the ACC to go after Syracuse and Pitt and UConn and Rutgers. Not if the aim is to improve the league on the field. If it was about the on field product, why wouldn't you invite West Virginia and South Florida-probably the two best programs in the Big East right now?

But this whole expansion thing has never been about this, has it? It's only about the money from football, and bringing in Pittsburgh's market and the NYC Metro area (with Syracuse, and UConn and Rutgers if that is the case).

I'll admit I don't even know what the end game is right now; Monday, Oklahoma and Texas's boards of regents are supposed to meet to discuss conference affiliation.

Let's just say that if panic time wasn't already here, it's here now.

Maybe the Big 12 will survive in the end

Add TCU and Louisville once the Big East (football) officially folds. Cincinnati if they are interested in what would be a real and stable new Big 12. Really not sure what happens to South Florida to be honest.

Or maybe as a KC resident I am just hoping that the Big 12 can stay together.

Add wv to that list.

If the big east does disappear, does ND finally join the big 10? Can Mizzou get the 14th invite assuming UT doesn’t take it?

A lot of questions. There will be several teams left out if we move to a 4 16 team superconference alignment. Fortunately, Mizzou won’t be one of them.

I’d love to be in a B10 with KU, ND, and UT. That’s my dream scenario. I think right now the UT is shopping themselves to try to find a conference that will agree to let them have their cake and eat it too with the Longhorn Network. I don’t think they’ll find it in any of the 4 superconferences. If they feel like they have to align I think the B10 would be the most attractive because of the revenue from the B10 network, with the PAC-whatever being a close second (but probably better from a travel aspect with OU and OSU presumably there as well).

ND could still be independent even if the Big east loses all their football schools I suppose. I’m not sure what the Olympic sports at schools like Marquette and St johns are like, but maybe they are good enough.

The ACC has to be banking on a playoff system because it doesn’t make sense to expand if you can’t get 2 guaranteed BCS bids. If there is a 4 team playoff then they keep the bowl system in place with a guaranteed playoff slot plus a guaranteed BCS bid, I guess.

So assuming those 4 head to the ACC and no ACC schools defect the top remaining teams in play are:
Notre Dame
Texas
OU/OSU
Mizzou
West Virginia
KU
Texas Tech
Louisville
Iowa St
Baylor
K-State
Cincinatti

Under equal revenue sharing, no question. I want recruiting inroads to TX and TX money.

The problem isn’t with Texas, it’s with allowing Texas to run things. I’d love to be in any conference with Texas if revenue is distributed equally and teams have to pool their nonconference tv rights.

As a possibility, the ACC takes Rutgers, Connecticut to complete 16, the SEC takes South Florida (if UF allows it) for 14 and Big 12 (OU, OSU, UT TT stays) gets stronger by gobbling up remaining members West Virginia, Louisville, and Cincinnati?? TCU can come in as well while we boot cancer UT out!

The ACC may end up taking WVA or South Florida

I have seen a lot say no WVU to ACC because of academics and that makes sense; I would think the same applies for the BIG with regard to WVU

Bold move for the ACC, they take away likely targets for the BIG expansion and also make it more difficult for SEC or other conferences to poach by increasing buyout to 20 million.

Keep in mind the buyout vote was unanimous.

So the ACC members may not jump if offered to the SEC. I think this really blocks both the Big Ten and SEC in, expansion wise.

I agree, FSU officials were thrilled about the additions and Va Tech has already made public statements about being very happy in the SEC (two of the schools I have seen rumors about with regard to the SEC)...

for the SEC, it may get very tough to get beyond 14—WVU and Mizzou seem to me the best targets to get to 14 with A&M and to get to 16, I’m not sure what schools would be on the list—maybe TCU and Texas Tech would be on that list.

In either case, if the ACC pulls this off and adds those 4 teams.

Suddenly the cupboard just got very bare for the B1G and SEC. Might have to take a “lesser school” in order to get to 16.

Just saw that the ACC may be looking at two more Big East/East Coast schools possibly?
“Pittsburgh and Syracuse, who have applied, these are solid academic schools, and the ACC is a truly academic conference,” Barron said. "Certainly great basketball teams, a good history of football.

“I’m sure consideration will be very fast. I’ll be surprised if it’s not tomorrow (Sunday).”

But USA Today reported early Sunday that the ACC presidents had already voted on Saturday morning to accept Syracuse and Pittsburgh to the league. Citing an anonymous source, the newspaper said the ACC was still considering adding two other East Coast teams and that Connecticut and Rutgers would be the candidates.

link

Was not thinking of that one with all the rumors out there but could make sense although, I’m not sure how FSU football fans would feel about that one.

I wonder if adding Pitt and Syracuse is part of getting UT and another team say KU to come over—I have seen the rumors because of the ACC taking the LHN as is, but for UT it makes little sense to me to play a bunch of teams on the East coast and up North and playing very few teams in their region—it would hurt there recruiting I think; the Pac for them seems so right for them if the Big 12 can’t be salvaged.

UConn and Rutgers

Are in ‘wait and see’ mode. That’s a lot of bad football to swallow for the sake of definitively nailing down the East Coast.

It’s not like UConn and Rutgers are not going to be there in a few years. The only longshot Rutgers has is the B1G, and that ain’t happening without ND and possibly Syracuse.

It’s best to hedge their bets and see what comes out of blowing up the Big East.

by Gopher86 on Sep 18, 2011 9:10 AM CDT up reply actions  

Syracuse was an original member of the Big East

I am pretty sure everyone (B10 included) thought they would surely be there when it came time to potentially make a decision. You can no longer make that statement and believe it is an effective strategy for building your conference. The B10, if in fact their desire is to eventually get to 16 like others seem to be, can no longer wait to until they are ready because they believe their teams will be there.

I think the Big 10 is in a unique position to do so

Any team they add would have to add the same incremental value as a Nebraska (which wasn’t even given a full share upon confirmation). The B1G will only move for Texas, ND or another football king. They may take an ancillary team to nab a big fish, but they aren’t in the business of hitting singles or doubles right now.

Look for the B1G to make a move on UT or ND this round, or a power play move right before their contract is up for renewal (2015 or 16, I believe).

That’s a lot of bad football to swallow for the sake of definitively nailing down the East Coast.

Absolutely, that is why I think FSU fans can’t like the idea of it, but for b-ball, UCONN would be a great pick-up and then you add Pitt and ’Cuse also.

OU and OSU make sense in the SEC if we’re talking 16.

I don’t think Texas Tech has any allure except as a package deal with TX.

TCU has no allure whatsoever.

West Virginia is a good fit. Then the Oklahomas and Texas, Mizzou. If Texas is forced to accept equal revenue sharing they might lobby to bring a tag along or two as well.

Texas, TAMU, Texas Tech, and West Virginia makes sense. If no Texas, then I predict no Tech either and they try for OU/OSU. If no OK schools then they try for Missouri (who’s a B10 lock if offered).

They could hang at 14, really.

by WURoyal on Sep 18, 2011 3:26 AM CDT up reply actions  

Half the teams you mentioned have no link whatsoever to the SEC.

Oklahoma has not ever been interested in the SEC. The SEC is not interested in any Texas team besides A&M.

16 isn't a hard and fast number

What happened was, a writer (I think for the Orlando paper) made up a scenario with 4 leagues with 16 teams to set up a football playoff. A year later, the Pac 10 was set to invite 6 members to go to sixteen. There are difficulties with 14 teams in scheduling: 6 divisional, 2 or three cross?

Despite the numerical obsession, there is NO reason to go to 16 for the sake of going to 16. It makes sense for the Pac, which needs time zones and tv sets (a land grab), but not for the other 3 emerging leagues. The B1G will only expand for quality brands (it has tv markets). The SEC decided to expand because a great brand fell into its lap; now it needs to balance the league. The ACC was being proactive and decided to position itself as the de facto East Coast league (reinforcing their walls). We’re not likely to see 4 16 team leagues.

Why the ACC move makes sense: Think long term, because this isn’t a football play. There are two viable leagues on the East coast. The SEC will expand by an additional team. There has been some flirtation between the ACC and UT. By (1) Raising the exit penalties (2) Making the Big East poachable (WVU) (3) Taking two slots off the table, the ACC (1) Reaffirmed its ranks (2) Deflected the SEC’s attention to WVU from FSU, & (3) Eliminated any UT or Texas politician’s fantasy about bringing all its Texan friends. It was a play to strengthen their long term position as a viable conference, not their strength in terms of football prestege.

I've been screaming these questions since this whole mess began.

What is so special about 16? Why not 15? Why not 22? Why does everybody have to have the same number of teams when for a CENTURY conferences have not had the same number of teams?

by MizzouRah04 on Sep 18, 2011 10:06 AM CDT up reply actions  

This is why I heard that BCS conferences are shooting for 16 teams…

A BCS conference must have at least 8 teams, and if that conference retains AQ status, the conference will get 1 automatic bid into the BCS. So the thought is that if at least 8 teams will get you 1 automatic bid into the BCS, then BCS conferences that have 16 teams will petition for 2 automatic bids into the BCS, which means… more money. Hope that makes sense.

I’m not sure if there is confirmation from the BCS

But I couldn’t imagine that conference commissioners would go through all this trouble if they didn’t think that would be the case.
Also, having 2 automatic bids into the BCS would work out logistically. Instead of 6 BCS conferences, you would now have 4 BCS conferences as the Big 12 will dissolve and the Big East will either dissolve or lose AQ status having lost their best programs, so that leaves you with the PAC-16, ACC, SEC, and B1G. With those 4 BCS conferences, and with 4 BCS bowls (Rose Bowl, Orange Bowl, Fiesta Bowl, Sugar Bowl) not counting the National Championship game, those 4 conferences would each get 2 teams into the 4 BCS bowls. Then 2 BCS conferences will have a 3rd team in the BCS as they would match up in the National Championship game… There are also rumors that a 5th BCS bowl could be added (e.g., Cotton Bowl, Capital One Bowl, etc.), and again the reason for that is… more money.

I have been wondering the same questions

I guess that 16 teams makes sense because if you have less than 16, you run the risk of being poachable. And 16 teams allows for two divisions of 8 teams. That’s a pretty convenient number for football scheduling

North America is a good position to get in to win—love being the quick strike approach when dug in deep in Australia (we were liberal with how many men you could keep on a territory but if you rolled a 666 on attack, it was a nuclear bomb that blew away the opposing armies so you took your chances if you loaded up. The Big 12 is looking like the European territories which is hard to hold together as it can be attacked from many places and once you get it, the territories get picked off by the opposing armies.

Since this is a football driven decision

yes, I was being a football centric.

For the purposes of expansion under these parameters, that is what matters.

Don’t impugn my negligence of considering baseball and other olympic sports, but to be honest, even basketball has been rendered irreleveant under the circumstances.

Expansion has nothing to do with the other sports, because if they did, they would give them some consideration. But this is all about football money.

One thing to note

Here’s the Louisville AD saying he’s shocked at the events. Mark Nordenberg is chancellor of Pittsburgh and on the CEO Executive committee of the Big East. He’s roughly analogous to our Brady Deaton in this respect, and Nordenberg just bailed on the conference while recently urging members that the Big East should stick together. Think about that for a bit. While I don’t wish for us to be seen as back-stabbers I sure as heck am going to be mad if we’re left holding the bag because Deaton is committed to a Big 12 and we are left standing around when the music stops.

by hed64 on Sep 18, 2011 10:19 AM CDT reply actions  

Another level to that story is ESPN's financial position in this move

ESPN’s offer to the Big East was going to dwarf their current contract and net them much more than the ACC. Pitt’s Chancellor put the brakes to that deal. ESPN now gets (1) To renegotiate the Big East deal with two big properties off the table and the threat of the league disintegrating; (2) Add two of the Big East’s biggest properties to ESPN’s current contract with the ACC, which is woefully under fair market value.

This brings into question whether Pitt and Cuse had extra incentive to change leagues. This move was worth close to $100mm/yr to ESPN; it should be interesting to see what adjustments were made to the ACC.

I think the important thing everyone is ignoring

is that this probably takes Pitt off the table for the when the Big XII-II-I-II?-II? expands.

If the Big 12 were to land BYU, TCU, and Louisville to get back to 12, are they really that much worse as a competitive football conference? They’d be worse off in terms of TV negotiations, but in terms of on field product, I think it’d be more “different” than “worse”.
