With Colorado set to bolt from the Pac-12 for the Big 12 in the latest conference realignment move, ACC commissioner Jim Phillips said the league is open to new membership.
In a college sports landscape that is turning into adapt-or-die for leagues not named the Big 10 or SEC, it makes sense that the ACC, which is likely the third most attractive league thanks to the likes of Florida State and Clemson, would be open to adding new members.
After all, the ACC may eventually need to give Florida State and Clemson a reason to stay and not bolt for the SEC too. The same statement is likely true for other big brands in the conference like Miami and Virginia Tech.
