Tony Barnhardt's 5 steps to ACC becoming relevant in college football again...

[Maroon Baboon]

Yes. FSU to B12 discussions confirms the conventional wisdom of the last couple years that the SEC doesn't want FSU or Clemson. Partly due to UF and USC-e, and also because they want to get into new territory.

We don't want FSU. Let them go to the B12.

He is one of the most respected voices in the game. It's not like this is Heather Dinich here. And notably, he only has minimal connections to the ESPN machine.

I don't waste my time reading that guy

Overcomplicated. KISS-Only one solution: WIN (and that means bowl games too).

Bingo. If we had won at 1/2 of our BCS bowl games, and if FSU hadn't have tanked, and if Clemson had played up to near their potential, and if Miami hadn't been the "pig in a poke" they turned out to be, we and Barnhart wouldn't be having this conversation today.

Just WIN, baby, Just WIN. That is all we needed to do.

He's an SEC guy, working for CBS..nothing more

I don't think shaking the divisions up a little bit is completely outside the realm of possibility

Just WIN, baby, Just WIN. That is all we needed to do.

Question is, is it too late now given that the winds of change are apparently blowing again?

[anOldHokie]

Me either...but that has nothing to do with Barnhadt. He's a memeber of one of the worst college football analyst teams in the history of the game.
