in a perfect world all the teams that left would come back. they aren't. i do think we need to grab a couple of teams for stability though and if you can get the right teams then you do it. yeah it sucks that they aren't located in neighboring states but it is what it is and it doesn't mean anybody has to love it or that people who want it are saying it's perfect. it's survival and they are realists.
Clemson's Board of Trustees will meet Today to discuss figures like the ones provided here to put together their plan of action moving forward. While my sources indicate no offer has come, I do expect the BOT to have a general idea of how they will vote on a Big XII offer when it does, and likely vote to empower Barker to negotiate on behalf of Clemson with the Big XII conference. The BOT would retain veto and ratification power on any deal, and I'd expect it all done by the end of June.

Grew up near the KS/Neb border, lots of NU football "fans" (walmart t-shirt fans) man, they were super annoying, never had the desire to travel to lincoln either.Those are all pretty good reasons to wish they were still here

RT @TomahawkNation: Clemson fans tailgating the BOT meeting? Brilliant.

Anybody that doesn't see this thing on any track besides the one headed towards congressional investigations, the IRS, attorney generals, legal councils and lawsuits is blind as a bat.

It is really a sad state of affairs when a college football fan has to adopt realpolitik as his lens to view his team and their conference affiliation lest he be labeled a fool or worse.I think most of the powerful forces in college athletics are forces for evil and that they actively hate both the fans that are bootlicking their penis measuring power grabs and those that are unhappy about it. But by all means, just embrace the nihilism your childhood has no meaning.
