They might as well expand now, more expansion will just mean that soon enough more games will be played "regionally" within the conference with divisions. I am all for that.

I can't read it since it is behind a paywall. But any expansion that does not include Notre Dame does not matter. Whoever can read it, I am guessing North Carolina?

At this point, who could we really add that adds weight to the conference besides Notre Dame?

Clemson and FSU make sense. North Carolina isn't a stretch when considering all sports. Just hope we don't add Miami...

Clemson and FSU just re-upped with the ACC. That's not going to happen, at least for several years. They also have that huge exit fee.

Just bring on Pitt, Syracuse, Va Tech and Virginia already. Give back to the community - and allow Rutgers & Maryland to have short travel and some hope & fun already. They tired of getting blasted by tOSU and traveling.
You brung in Rutgers & Maryland for a reason, right? Right??
PPL in NY and DC are not watching like the rest of us, so at least let them have some East Coast area games.

He is saying 20 team B1G by 2030... That is ironically when the buyout drops to 75 million. The ACC knows it's done but it was able to delay the inevitable for a few years.

Agree with this 100%. Of course the million $ question is: Why would they leave the Big 12 - much easier chance to get to the playoffs via Big 12 then Big 10. But the answer might just be $$ - money in the Big 10 even without a realistic chance to make the playoffs is a big reason. I'd like to see Kansas basketball and this would be a competitive league for that. ISU and KSU won't add much value on the football side - they do add some value on the basketball side when they are playing well.
How about we farm out Rutgers and Maryland out to the Big 12 where they can play West Virigina and we bring in FSU, Clemson or NC. Miami can rot in the ACC.

This 100%. I miss these schools being on the schedule. It still feels weird that we aren't playing them.
I would want Kansas and Kansas State. Iowa may be against the Cyclones joining the party.
