    It’s a BIG DIFFERENCE from AAC to ACC… when telling a player that they can play for a national championship… plus being in a power conference walking into a young player home and the transfer market just from the Dallas/Houston area they will make some noise… and they won’t have any issues handling anything about NIL…

    2:58 tell that to Pitt who won it 2 years ago beating Clemson to get there and is the 2nd winningest program since 2016 in the conference behind only Clemson. Florida state hasn’t won it in like 10 years and has been pretty mid. They don’t belong in that conversation. Notre Dame has won the regular season more recently

      So he said it was hard for anyone besides Clemson and Florida State to win the ACC, and your response was "well that one time Pitt won"? Winning once ever sounds like it's pretty hard for them to win the conference.
      Also Notre Dame didn't win the ACC ever. No idea why you think they did.

      @@CRS253 2020 Notre Dame were season champs. They lost the title game to Clemson but it was the covid year and they went 9-0 in the conference because they joined it for that season and were crowned reg season champs because Clemson was 8-1.
      Pitt won it in 2021 and made the title game in 2018. It’s Pitt. Pitt sucks. My point was and still is that teams like Pitt are making the title game and winning the ACC more often than Florida State since Pitt entered the conference in 2013 and have only been in it for 10 years. Winning once and getting there 2 times as a pretty mid program in 10 years is more of an accomplishment than anything FSU has done since Jameis Winston. He said “it’s been hard for anyone outside of Clemson or Florida State to win the ACC” and I’m saying that Florida State simply does not belong in that sentence currently or for the past 11 years

    Take out FSU and Clemson the rest of the ACC has awful football. It’s not a stretch to say that any team including SMU could win the league… just SOMEBODY do it! At least the Big 12 has decent football top to bottom

      FSU hasn’t been relevant since Jameis Winston until this season (which we still don’t know if we can believe the hype). I don’t know why they’re on the same level as Clemson. I mean Pitt and Notre Dame have won the conference more recently lmao and ironically I think I saw that Pitt is the 2nd most winningest program in the ACC since like 2015 only behind Clemson. That’s probably a big knock on the conference as a whole that Pitt is your 2nd best team by record over FSU, Miami, UNC and whoever

      @@Mark_Cadden I don’t disagree. It’s really amazing that none of the other teams have been able to rise up when Clemson or FSU aren’t on top. I legit can’t remember the last ACC team that was great that didn’t include them. We aren’t talking about upstart programs either. VA, VaTech, the U, just kinda mind blowing.
