I am @PeninsulaHokie on Twitter and started to call them out, only saying things suck as #Big12 Twitter Campaign #fail. They quickly got on the defensive and started tweeting things like as% raping VT...win a BCS game then talk...etc etc. Classy bunch there at 247, I tell ya.
Speaking of Twitter...I received this direct message from a random Clemson fan FWIW:

I am a clemson fan addicted to this expansion stuff. Youre asking questions & calling these guys out like I wish I could. Keep it up!

So you want to stay in the ACC?

16h
I usually try to avoid engaging in a twitter war but these guys are literally out of control.

15h
I do. But not in a $10mill hole to the gamecocks or something. I live in charlotte, like going to games close by and all that


15h
If it happens, it happens,.but these guys are so sure and smug with themselves. It drives me insane, but I read every word.

15h
I honestly don't think that's the case. It was just announced that the ACC paid out $17MM per school, only $2MM less than the BIG12.


15h
And that is with the Big12 receiving $30+MM from a&m and Mizz for exit fees. The $ is not that different. I think the decision makers know


15h
I hope the ACC stays inact an I think it will. It's a great conference and the best place for both of us.


15h
What do other fans think, aside from this twitter mob?


12h
Overall people think I'm crazy even mentioning it. One friend is a message board junky, we're both concerened about


12h
Being stuck out on an island in the east of that conference like a token member. Never go to a road game again.


12h
A poll on tigernet was 60-40 go to big 12, but that's message boarders. I think it would be like a 2x4 to the head for average fan.


12h
Average fan has no idea and would be shocked and maybe mad, its all message board twitterdom. Could be true, these twitter guys so sure tho

Thanks for sharing. Since we last chatted, @warchant_dc broke a lot of news about FSU meeting today. I don't think anyone is going anywher


12h
and granted I know that's FSU, but I think Clemson decision will be largely based on what FSU does...
