No it won’t.  This isn’t all about football, there are other sports involved.  You are just annoying so bravo you reached your goal here

Yeah that dude is such a casual. Painfully obvious No clue about what he is talking about. ACC only goes belly up if UNC leaves  

I won’t deny the fact tho that it really is inevitable we are headed to a 2 maybe 3 super conference league. It’s gonna happen eventually, too much money being passed around.

I don't care what happens to the ACC. There's a handful of programs that will be coveted by other major conferences and be just fine. UNC is one of those programs.

I’d prefer the ACC sticks around, but it is what it is. UNC will be more than fine wherever they land, and to be such a mid level FB program like that doofus in this thread mentioned, it sure as hell seems like they a hot commodity if you believe the rumors. Such a hot commodity that NCST and Duke are gonna be begging Bubba to try and bring them along.

I am gonna piss you off but UNC is a mid level football program most seasons.  A few more seasons of Hubert led basketball teams could be disastrous if he doesn’t turn it around very soon

Lol Duke and State aint gonna be begging y'all for poo. I know that UNC fans suffer from a severe case of delusions of grandeur but jesus christ. State just finished giving you the finger in alignment talks after your BoR tried to exert it's influence over them while Duke had being doing so all along, the ACC already has its contingency plan in place for when FSU, Clemson, and UNC snake the conference via the new additions. Obviously it isn't ideal but the ACC will probably just be like how the current big 12 is whenever it happens, and there's good reason to believe it'll be a while until it does given that FSU has tried very publicly to find loopholes against the grant of rights yet can't. Have fun with your conference games against Minnesota while the rest of us keep our regional rivalries and history when it does come to pass though.

Sure we could. It would be scheduled as out of conference. Conference alignment won't get in the way of the best rivalry in college basketball. No one cares about the "rivalry" with NCSU except for state fans.

NC State had a great run in 82 but seriously no one in the nation cares about State.  I doubt it crosses anyone’s mind what happens to NC State

    • Nothing wrong with starting to look for bodies early. It's a long injury filled season. I doubt we get through unscathed. 
    • We're in alignment regarding Thielen not being a game changer/breaker for the Panthers. Getting the ball into hands of playmakers like TMac and XL is going to open up things more than it is getting it to Thielen underneath (or letting him go after 50/50 balls 20yds downfield in his mid-30s). However, in a room where the other guys are two second year guys and two rookies, having a reliable vet that they can learn from is just as important as it is for the QB to have as a reliable third option. I can see that being worth $8.5M (just 3%) of the $279.2M cap... especially when looking at what's left out there: https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/free-agents/_/position/wr However, the idea that the team is forcing production to Thielen and leading to losses isn't supported by the data. Targets, not receiving yards, are how you can tell if a player is being "force fed." In the two games mentioned, let's look at the other players available... vs. TB 10 targets - Adam Thielen 9 targets - David Moore 8 targets - Tommy Tremble, Xavier Legette 3 targets - Jonathon Brooks 1 target - Dan Chisena, Feleipe Franks, Stephen Sullivan vs. PHI 11 targets - Adam Thielen 8 targets - Xavier Legette 5 targets - Chuba Hubbard, David Moore 2 targets - Tommy Tremble 1 target - Ja'Tavion Sanders, Deven Thompkins There isn't exactly a bounty of other names to throw the ball to. In those games, AT was one of the top 2 WRs. Diontae had been gone by that point.   So... yea. Agreed that Thielen isn't exactly carrying the team in his mid-30s, but it's undeniable that he was the most reliable target last season that still has quite a bit of value this season. Whether or not that value is reflected in a manner folks think on the contract is going to come down to personal taste. However, the idea that the team was forcing production to AT and that was the reason behind some losses couldn't be further from the truth.
    • I would also add that I think it's more than money.  AT has looked absolutely miserable out there at times, and there was a lot of speculation he would demand to be traded.  Personally, I thought he was a lock to be moved last year.  Maybe his hamstring is the only thing that prevents that from happening. The fact that he's not only willing to come back and play, but excited about it, really bodes well for Bryce.  AT is a veteran and he knows the game.  If he didn't have confidence in Bryce, I guarantee you he wouldn't be in a Panther uniform this year.  I'll take that as a positive.
