#Cal, #Stanford, and #SMU are being invited into ACC.*
#ACC voted and #NCState flipped their vote.**
One more step towards the #PAC12 completely dissolving. #OregonState and #WashingtonState, as expected, are the last ones left.

Majority of UNC trustees βstronglyβ oppose ACC expansion
βThe travel distances for routine in-conference competitive play are too great ... to make sense for our student-athletes, coaches, alumni and fans. ... The economics of this newly imagined transcontinental conference do not sufficiently address the income disparity ACC members face.β

I thought this might interest you. The issue that I see, is that the current ACC is literally on the Atlantic Coast. If they add #Cal and #Stanford the travel would be worse than #USC #UCLA and #Oregon and #Washington
They would be better off in #MountainWest or #WAC

Sources: #ACC presidents have scheduled a call tonight to discuss β and potentially vote on β adding #Stanford, #Cal and #SMU. Still tentative on whether the vote will occur or what result would be, but this is moving toward the finish line. First reported by @RossDellenger

Simply fascinating that #SMU got itself into the #ACC expansion discussion by effectively offering to subsidize the additions of #Stanford and #Cal by taking zero media money for 7(!) years. This is bizarro world even by conference realignment standards.

Source confirms to @TheAthletic that the ACC is (again) seriously considering adding #Stanford, #Cal and #SMU. A group of ACC presidents met Wednesday morning to discuss finances, as ESPN first reported. More meetings, including ADs, are expected to occur this week.

I truly hope #Stanford and #Cal end up in the #B1G. Stanford has won nearly every Director's Cup and along with Cal, USC, and UCLA, regularly claim 4 of the top 10 spots. This is the reason why the PAC-12 was known as the "Conference of Champions".
And adding these two top AAU schools will only reinforce the B1G's academic prestige.
This is just the first half of the first paragraph at the link shown below.
βIn its history, Cal has claimed 103 national team titles in 15 different sports and has 327 individual (196), rowing (57), swimming relay (58), tennis doubles (14) and track relay (3) national champions.β
Not to be too dramatic, but I am reminded of the quote from Blade Runner:
β All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain... Time to die.β

~ @HelloRob they were great for such a long time, but no one can remain great forever.
I had a #boyfriend in the #1980s when #Canseco was #Rookie of the Year, who had season A's tickets. For some reason, my primary memories of that era, besides #DireStraits and flunking out of #Cal, are the voice of the announcer calling out #DaveStewart and #CarneyLansford, and also, making out at the 7th inning stretch.
Tim was a good #kisser, but it didn't extend beyond that. Sorry, #Tim.
It was such an awesome era, and those times ended. I wish #MLB weren't corporate and weren't so worried about the whims of ticket #sales.
I wish all teams were the #GreenBayPackers, with local ownership. Even better, I wish it were the A's of the #1980s, with local ownership and local players.

I feel bad for #Cal #Stanford #OregonState #WashingtonState
With #ASU and #Arizona along with #Utah heading to the #Big12
the final mail in the coffin of what was the #ConferenceofChampions is no more.
There is a good chance the #Stanford may go Independent and the other schools will join the #MountainWest
