    Question: Is FSU's primary function as a University to be in the sports entertainment business?

    So you are arguing FSU should cut all sports where tickets are sold and TV money is exchanged (something that happens in the Big 12 AND the ACC)?

    If your answer is yes, then I will respond.

    But it has ZERO to do with whether FSU should move to another conference.

  • Terps, please stop posting. Are you really trying to play the academic angle and pretend that if we go to the Big 12 that it would be detrimental to our academics and our ability to teach our students. Being in the same conference as Duke means nothing for our academics just like Vanderbilt doesn't improve the academic integrity of the SEC and vice versa. The ACC hasn't given us any reason to stay. Stop pretending like it would be a smart move to stay for selfish reasons. We know the ACC is f***ed in football if we leave and so does Clemson but thats not our problem. The ACC dug their own grave.
