Hayes Permar talks about how the ACC still remains unchanged right now despite the impending conference realignments that have taken place with USC & UCLA leaving the PAC-12 for the Big Ten. Hayes and Dennis Cox talk about how college football and college sports were built on traditions and rivalries, and how that's being impacted with realignment.

This is that the Adam goals you have financial advisory through capital financial USA.com. This is the Adam Gold show the scenario and the way the American ECU. What is widely viewed as he can survive. They just need to Boston College money.

This is the gold show, gold show, and much like pretty much every other sports radio show you here in the country there's a fillet hostess with the uncle Joe.

It is, it is me as it is you, you got these one is always right it is I is the it is I will fill you in forever to go to the affordability of his for more fill you out before we get so secured to keep it work every year.

If we can for the job. Pretty much everyone takes up like state legislature congressional schedules.

They all revolve around yellow. What's what diets were breaking like the whole world is as good a break that includes the sports world. We declared sports over with the Stanley Cup ended when I was in here couple weeks ago yeah obviously no disrespect to our big Wimbledon Tour de France fans that are out there that is about going strong will hit on those and college sports did as a favor by throwing a steel realignment nugget late last week when I was bemoaning yesterday about how I talk import radius a one of the hosts of 4 July gathering. I was at the mother of the house was like when I was country log stuff is like you, Michelle talk about that a good Fourth of July. It seemed like it was the odd one. A tough one to celebrate his visit when there was violence going on, gun violence into cities. Most of the suburban Chicago. There the house and parking and also in Philadelphia and then specifically for women. But for a lot of folks.

After the Supreme Court ruling. It felt like a tough time to celebrate being an American to be America, but I see that way everyone is good always to be a little bit disappointed with whoever's in charge of the government right and I know that that's that's that's understating what some people are feeling right now to sprinkle ruling, but I think that you don't have to be a perfect Christian to celebrate Christmas or Easter right like things don't have to be perfect to your church or in your own faith life. You don't have to have been welcoming to all and and thoughtful of history to an you could still be a fight with your family member and celebrate the fact that Thanksgiving is good for that.

So I sort of see it that way. Like people are out there striving to make America what they believe a better version of America could be is that's great and we have work to do that is for sure, but I don't think that you take away from celebrating 4 July our nations history our nation's birthday fireworks still cool it off. Especially the big city displays. I do my left about a baseball now for seven or eight years.

I see fireworks like every Friday night and pretty much yeah but the biggest city displays. They are still pretty cool that the other thing I don't like that seems to come out hard and Fourth of July people are never happy brigade dominate. Unlike next door wherever the fireworks year were in your town like they were better last year or the parking was better or some aspect of that was better to be people, and I understand fireworks or hardship for pets and some veterans like we kinda know this, but we also can't accept it as a society we can allow flowers and Fourth of July to just come out and like the day before going no fireworks in my neighborhood. Please it's like to come on the complainers. It's it's a holiday to try and ignore them. It gets harder and harder to ignore complainers just no fun police just can't let you know melted ice cream cone on your hand and hold a sparkler need a hot dog and just be happy like the complainers outcome out so I hope again, my thoughts were obviously affected and jarred by the instances of gun violence yesterday that could be a good problem in our country, but I think in general it still okay to have celebration of holidays even amidst tough times. I actually interestingly enough, an old friend of mine that I used to be a camp counselor with we are literally the same cabin can appeal went down See on the coast with a always celebrate for joy, sometimes, that is classic and I think they did this year just fits better on a different day in your schedule. We talk about this on the show we have what should you be able to designate days of the week for all holidays like we do for Thanksgiving. Perfect your Thanksgiving. They got Friday off the weekend right stinks when certain holidays fall on certain days like Christmas on a Sunday no good for anybody no good for the July bad, could you celebrate all we get you in a short week. Some of you that we did the research I found that we set up, there is a year where like Fourth of July Christmas fall on a Thursday. Maybe it was perfect because then say like Thanksgiving weekend. Easter is always give me a Sunday that works out well so that that's 2025 to 2025 would still lock – calendar year 2025.

Whatever else that starts at the start on Monday to Fourth of July is actually a technically will start on Wednesday because fun that's fine.

Every year we will start on Wednesday, January 1, and then we get the perfect lineup of Fourth of July's is on a Friday to Friday at 500 is a perfect Christmas falls on a Thursday perfect to take Friday all day Friday Wednesday Christmas Eve is he that will have the week off yeah exactly to the lively golf and then New Year's Eve is a Wednesday in the day on Wednesday is resetting the account exactly what wonderful New Year's Eve is a Wednesday yes then New Year's Day. New Year's Day will just be a day that like that existed.

The holiday is resetting the calendar.that's a little tricky because that if you like where to send people back to work on gender Friday, January 3, but I think people just ride with us on this, but just take the whole rest of the rest of week all that is to be perfect work. The 29th, the 30th and you'll get like four days off. Then the weekend that you're starting the war and possibly starting rock that Colleen's office on Friday, 20, 2500 perfect holiday calendar locket in a change in so everybody make a get on social media with this and just declare it in the 2025 search approach that yeah remember. Yeah, we told you this could be a good year exactly this video posted the one thing that I found I discovered new on Fourth of July. This was things like what happens on the Internet. Over the course of the lifetime of the Internet, which is what going on close to 30 years like 25 years now. It's been in like the mainstream late 90s we know it was all quirky were getting email addresses after like now where we can live without it daily, minute by minute in our phone thread so I mean I don't know how long memes take to happen right like sometimes there are videos from long ago. They didn't get brought back up to become something like a joke within a small circle that it becomes a bigger circle.

The bigger circle that eventually everybody just don't know where exactly in the evolution of amine we are with backup Terry and like I can't say for certain that yesterday was the first time I ever saw backup Terry on 4 July, but now yesterday was a time where I feel like it flipped over were like multiple people texted to me.

It was like this was the video that you had to walk to 4 July several years old are described and shared multiple to partly something I wrote a little poem along with it like some some far Rosa read fireworks and scary put put it in reverse backup Terry so if you don't know what I'm talking about. You need to get on board Simon LPR right now this is the thing that you need to learn about for for for the glass of the next year comes around you are ready for Terry to do the audio first and explain it are explained in the audit here is Terry Terry Whiting audio audio alterity I should like to study audio on fire Terry lighting fireworks and then in his wheelchair not getting away quickly in a motorized chair. The fireworks are shooting off the first thing the video I guess is snows enough hours in the Terry's and no real scary right there with fireworks firing seemingly under his foot and cannot back up again on the way finally moves forward get somewhat clear of it, but I want to bless you all with one more Fourth of July backup Terry here in one day. That would be the perfect PSA for firecracker safety is not usually what would you ever got you light up a firecracker in your head you think lycée background like what you need to give you what you need to be adjusting anything one uses lit get away but in a way it's not a good PSA because Terry's, like laugh and smile and then get injured. She might be led to believe that low fireworks.

Given that hopeful that the message we want to sell but to talk a little bit later about movies that should always play 24 hours, or at least you are 16 hours waking time on a certain day that video backup Terry is now one that I'm watching every Fourth of July and have you anything out of fireworks over somebody like like the manually out there on the back of the Terry is just fantastic with a for the door behind us some sports that happens get out the gate to gate the biggest sports headline in the state of North Carolina over 1/4 of July weekend. Nobody left the ACC what the ACC still reports of the ACC's demise may have been slightly overstated or at least for now. As we mentioned earlier for the July everyone's on vacation including university presidents, athletic directors, all of you will be involved in that one of the decisions they take it off. However, as the news last week UCLA and USC. The big Jim showed us a vacation you better not sleep when it was in the Pac 12 Commissioner that was like in Montana somewhere on what he found out.

Rest assured, I'm all about worklife balance about life way over work right. Sure, maybe a little bit too much like so I'm all for even banana support business goals with your family Montana you should go on a vacation. You should never's behalf divorce well hang around in case one of us will decide to leave. However, it seemed like it suggested that he did know was coming in so everyone says this we don't trust each other a lot. Don't trust anyone.

We should have these meetings with the other universe he presidents her but he says were not leaving trusted you signed an alliance with another conference says hey when I get to do anymore transfer portal of schools to try to recruit what I do it like don't trust them.

Don't trust anyone. The one thing that you do trust right is for money to rule all things, and for legal complications. Is it like no one's going to jail if they are trying to conference but the wind becomes a legal issue because it cost more money and it becomes a workup so that being said everything moneywise points to the Big Ten in the SEC being the future of at least college football if not college athletics will talk to some folks this week about how those two may or may not be separated at this point it seems that the price should have already college football and the rest of college athletics. It seems silly to have the same rules governing this billion-dollar you know, second or third biggest sports league in American sports universes men's and women's tennis which are great sports and noteworthy, but like they should be treated the same as this billion-dollar industry right to for a while. It's kind of seems silly to hold everything under the same on umbrella of college sports and it's frankly held back the value of college football players and their athletes and give the benefit of it. IL that never would've gotten the ability to teach tennis or golf lessons are so your T-shirts or do whatever to run your podcast or monetize your Instagram fee if your college athlete know that would be possible if we were severely undervaluing college football and some college basketball athletes right and maybe a few other athletes here. There so there's legal stuff to all this money will rule all things. But here's what I say. The ACC is not quite dead yet. I have no doubt the Clemson is exploring other options right there talking as they should be.

But the grant of rights and I know it's easy to say your throat so that all the windows good do it. It does making just a little more complicated. And like you can. You can deftly go to court to try to fight your way out of it agreement that you try to contact you but that's it cost you money ultimately prior to settlement. A number that's still going to be a lot of money out of the exact details of like what the grant of rights as part of what he did. It was because we think we can make it really, really, really painful to leave the ACC. That's what they want to do the time that I have a question, is also I think schools have to ask themselves, do you blow up all your conference relationships for this college football deed that may be soon becoming its own thing right like Jim Phillips I'm on the phone with everybody in the college football world and say hey let's not wreck all of our leagues. Let's figure out what to do in college football, and what makes since there and and not just let's not have Duke and UNC leave for the Big Ten and all of a sudden there soccer and lacrosse. Everything else program is deep, rich history of the ACC be tossed aside for just the football TV contract which seemed seemed as well as right now it that's my big thing is with the whole realignment is are we losing what may college sports so great which was matchups traditions will area regional rivalries fan bases. Are we ditching and scrapping all of that to change TV money. I am what point are we sacrificing what may college sports so great that that's my big concern is for example where I grew up in Virginia I've seen you view the big thing but where I started my went to college or I started by working life was in the Shenandoah Valley Virginia Tech in West Virginia few driver West Virginia pit huge rivalry.

They will play each other anymore because they had West Virginia had to go to the big 12. They lose all that because he had to get out of Big East so what point are you sacrificing again. What made you so great as college sports to just chase money. Maryland's another chasing money is that we would talk about this with the live towards one of things where it's partly survival but is also partly like when buddy there that's having but be.

I think of the University of Maryland, they they made a much safer decision to be in the Big Ten where they do the but it was good be good. That's where you talk the a lot of their fans at least one by age close by age or older.

I've no idea what a €21 fans in Cozumel right now thinks about being in the ACC University. We are to report nothing. A lot of them would say. I realize we needed to do something to get a better financial footing. But this one thing I rather be the ACC.

Right now I think it's just we talk about the Phillips and the people in power need in my opinion you find a way to make sure that they still blend that tradition with still giving us still maximizing the the of the dollars I guess you could say I still don't want to see no skin in the game.

Regards US USC Notre Dame.

I still love watching them play.

I think those things still need to happen you will Notre Dame join the Big Ten. I see no want them ACC Big Ten challenge Notre Dame USC of the other issue I maybe a little more collocated is this again. I can't really speak wisely to Clemson. I have no other than the that I do think the grade of rights is a little more of a wall or hurtle than some people think specifically around here the names that you heard were Duke and UNC going to the Big Ten right here is what Duke would be obviously because they are beyond a name Brandon back in college basketball. They sort of are the namebrand of God's best. UNC is a combination of big big big name in college basketball and a bigot of name University of sports, the football make sense right. Duke is a private school they can do whatever they want in that regard. Right. I don't think you will be that easy, but they can North Carolina Acacia paying attention to like the North Carolina legislature UNC board of governors and trustees all those things in the last you know tender so you actually left on the UNC and we just need to make whatever decision they want to make in that regard, we seen state legislatures in the state try to get involved in making like ECU play state and UNC we see most read losing North Carolina state legislature gettable to the North Carolina high school high school athletic Association have to involved in some ways it ultimately they got, that was just a little more oversight that they could think the NCH is a great organization is still running things themselves, but for a while with a total takeover right and Las Vegas well that a primer for reporting on WRE all about how the state putting like $15 million line item basically to keep the ACC hundred percent and we just saw that right. We saw a different state legislature were nearby, so Virginia get involved with again with trying to make up our mood for detecting the ACC so if you think that whoever would do it even if they could do it continually, but you get out of the ACC all that stuff.

If you think the University of North Carolina can just up and extricate itself from the other from NC State and now we see the different ballgame with happen ECU. They are all part of the North you want a system and I don't think it's just as easy to snap your fingers out again.

I can't speak to the California school system university system or whatever how you feel are USC could you move quickly.

USC is a private school, but it ain't happening for that they would never have been understated, Inc. to be that easy, and it would not come without a lot of the legislature would decide to get involved with. There would be legislature say we should get involved. I checked in some sources over there.

The legislature guess what I said when the UCLA, USC, news broke late last week in regards to what would happen if you were to try to leave you know they said to her that my bus was inside the North Carolina legislature committee. They said July 4, we can expect of the left. There have been no discussion yesterday, we set everything vacation but I am telling you as a North Carolinian. I have lived here, I've seen the legislature try get involved in such things telling you they would get involved if North Carolina ever try to leave the ACC. I think you just I think it matters this day.

We always brag about having four Division I W for FPL schools pretty close to each other like with three very very close to each other and they don't get a lot of values that having one good. Join the other Big Ten is not to sit by and watch out so that was the big weekend is another cavity ACC and other semi-sports related things is power through these next up Joey Chestnut raising the bar for him like it's like American ninja warrior. They just keep throwing more to go down is not enough room to sit and crush everyone how delegating this study came in wearing a walking boot so he was injured on the how to really affect your eating, but whatever he is standing behind him and he came in on crutches all out the pass on that the injury you heard whatever's that is a paid. This was legit.

You could see this protesters yeah multiple was rushing to state what security where are you JoJo yeah between dogs to take out I got a Darth Vader mask saying Smithfield is the death Star.

I suppose Smithfield's death.

To be clear, this is not Smithfield's chicken barbecue that are going after. This is the larger Smithfield pork that they did see Smithfield everything Smithfield death Star. I know about friends over its with the chicken barbecue always like for me to make that clear delineation. This is Smithfield pork owned by company in China.

I believe now. Anyway, Joey.just that one again 63 dogs and buns a 50 laugh more than his next nearest competitor was Jeffrey Esper mean that we keep doing this we got shaken up.

Somebody's got to step up and challenge your chest that there's gotta be a bigot of either of their but somebody's window mouse and said we'll live tour of somebody to make the pot richer. Whatever it is to challenge you, Chestnut. The money ain't worth so many teams is what we don't have much tagteam hot dog eating if you said I'll give $10 million to the person they could take down Joey Chestnut.

We have a lot more dudes try and yeah also we could make you pseudo-center right, you pseudo-840 dogs. She is 189 last competitions when she did when she was pregnant and being totally like dumb caveman guy like that you get more hungry when you're pregnant I got. She should trot at least she didn't do it last year. Next up, getting out of the gate. Well then, here's see it given bright guys going to stop in just a minute. Words are mostly hooves but she gives a time to talk limited if he wanted me there in the elite eight. We call the quarterfinals finals. There were eight men and I knew four of us pretty darn good juggler China doll Taylor Fritz American in a curious guy because he always does. We are crazy stuff that actually like really bad on file getting into that but I know at least half of those funds.

One of them with exactly in a five center right now that is going to win. Yes, you want us over one down to sets is like nine and 119 and one all time in five centers at Wilmington juggler. It's like ain't afraid to just drop some sets early in the deceptive of lower side as a casual fan.

I'm just saying a little more bleak and that someone elbows like the only name I recognize and finally I didn't even know the Amanda and us some some move and she was American so I will see who comes out on the limits on the draw, but you for the eight dudes left under they were. Place your bets big on the American Taylor Fritz teasing my pics a little bit later. Then finally getting out of the gate this weekend.

This a lot like say that there was a live tour are kind of telling on themselves and their like I was watching the JP McManus program. I have all about not being a fair live tour. That's fine, but know that don't act like a tiger on the live tour like you'd be watching me like your your morals would be out the window if you say you're not watching for more reasons you really just I want to get is not achieving enough Tiger played shot a 77 of the JP McManus open this is the you know you go over there to ask for the British Open. Get your body clock adjusted play will golf played whatever grass styles they have over there is like a warm-up I shot a 77 but it did chip in for Eagle.

Here's what it sounded like a tiger attempting to plan little life sucking Sabrina so back a little low sucking spitter yeah and we can back your tiger attempting to plan little low sucking Sabrina with a low sucking chieftain for Eagle there back in the states JP posting at wire-to-wire in the John Deere classic he's a winner there and he is in for the Wyndham championship that announced by Wyndham today that's Greensboro about a month now my good friend Brian Geisinger's's not in Studio City, bringing some vibes with them and Kimber Walker T-shirt on risk and best products. I mean, maybe he'll be in Charlotte will see because of really, really low contract you once believe you know the buyout the Pistons.

I think that is complete and see. After that, he would theoretically have his his choices to observe whomever was interested. The Hornets do need a backup point guard, so maybe you notice Kimber Walker built on a roster next season in the NBA just going to be much limited capacity than what we are seeing him to be anybody's 12 or three option know that that Halo paid. As such, we'll talk some more NBA were in the middle of NBA free agency right now like in theory, could we hear about a trade or assigning go down during the show.

Yeah, absolutely.

I mean years were still waiting to hear of Kevin Durant.

Possible trades were still waiting to hear on DeAndre Eaton is a UNIX still yet to sign contractor agree to terms Colin Sexton another restrict free agency.

Yeah there is some stuff that could happen. It could also drag out for a little bit. You look a couple more weeks or whatever was it I guess was during the we had a weird time the calendar for sports were offered after the pandemic yes or some governor felt like yellow where free agency and then we just did a season would start another season so I Fritz two days yeah and you find out what was going down the felt more like a reality show the end of the 2020 NBA season like Lakers win the bubble title draft is a draft free in Frieden Cantrell for one week apart in training camp was like yeah a month after that week is a couple weeks of the season started days before Christmas sure there will be like think pieces of like the draft classes went through that likelihood got helped or hurt by it. The trickle down's of that are like me, we see it all the time in English thing a lot in college basketball to I think it's awesome that some electric wave young Smith plays at NC State which seems like it was his dream school in his back is one of the best players in the country this year, but it is also like you. Maybe more teams would've noticed a young Smith if he had like lost a season or two seasons of prep basketball. I do think there are sterling from a development standpoint, not to click on Smith because he's amazing.

But there are some other guys that you just saw get drafted or that are still in college or entering college. There probably like slightly behind the ball from a development standpoint because again they missed multiple seasons at a time where it's really important to practice and training you play lots of games will like that will be seen pieces and what we think is like that society is likely these pandemic kids 10 years or 20 years out and it will be the same sports I will talk more NBA a little bit but I feel like just trying to take the pulse of fruit for me. Here the triangle all about the trouble little bit this summer. Right now the conversation at the pool average dude sitting there talking sports.

They are asking what's happening with conference realignment after they saw how do we do a year ago or more. I can live with that over on the Texas board to the nose last July as he season a year ago they made sense because unlike the last wave of the of big-time conference realignment unit was like not not super marquee teams and observing sort of adjusting and in buffering against being rated like proving yourself as being a rater and not a greater right like you crazy Sievers biggies, but oh so go to Texas were like they were big. There almost. It's decent to love themselves so didn't seem like it necessarily started off another way. In fact, there was this now.

It was laughable kind of the time. Now even more laughable alliance between the big 10 pack 12 that seem to if nothing else, it seemed to say, hey, we've agreed not to shuffle teams around right like we we saw it just happened and didn't supposedly say it but it was like what even forming right it felt like the unspoken was were not kicking off another wave reliance right like that just happened. Realignment is a major hammer that in place a firm handshake and so then we turn around and use the US are gone that get is Ray's speculation that the classic is that we do this in our text, that of like we mean now going over 20 years we've seen ridiculous reports of their there are people out there willing to make the crazy claim so that if it's true will always be to God. It's like I called West Virginia to the ACC or II called you know Alabama line of Alabama going independent ECU to the SEC whatever somebody is willing to dubiously claim that if it goes through they can be like God, who claimed it right but once somebody said, are you still at USC are leaving like I wait for somebody really reported then the real thing got reported of a guy like I told you you store service is one person now that that's what person is saying to you and seeing to the Big Ten. That's one of the rivers and we got about Mountaineer four 2069. Yeah, he was all over this and like 2011. Everybody laughed. The theories come true. And everybody's like what you got for is now what what what you think it stands currently as far as rumors of either closing departing that the robbers need to see seem to be coaxing its own mortar clips in Miami Florida state UNC Virginia about missing somebody to Notre Dame and state always gets you there like the chrome thrown at the end what I said was there in the AC now and I was a kinder day but RCS of the big Duke obviously because their men's basketball is beyond the brand name. They are basically the brand of college basketball that carries enough way that even the college of the world they'd be working so of those schools. What we see. It's on the brakes. You have to report about like what you watching what you looking for and what are you hearing, reading about that the current news that the pool can gossip about what they forgets one of the things worth like there are all these like existential factors where everyone with DCC should be worried right mean you're seeing just seeing why UCLA and USC moved to the Big Ten is really after Texas and Oklahoma left announced the last of the relief of the SEC that everything went into like 02 BSC Sievers everybody here comes the alliance to contend with that but it's like it's really like the like.

Bicoastal nature of it is turning into being SEC verse Big Ten right because they just they make the most money. They have the most successful in a conference specific TV networks.

The Big Ten network back by Fox.

The SEC network box back by Disney and ESPN think it is the Fox third two of the biggest you know companies in the entire world.

I do think that that it's that's a little interesting that it's not just that the exchange of being SEC verse everyone to like now the this the two superpowers seem to be SEC verse the Big Ten and it's like it's impossible to ignore just how much more in terms of average payout. Those those two conferences can shell out to their their schools that you're doubling all the other power five conferences to the point now where it's like, is it really even apples to apples to compare the ACC to the Big Ten or the pack 12 to the SEC you know it feels different, despite all of those sort of like existential concerns in the financial realities that are impossible to ignore, including effective DCC network has been like a little bit of a boon for the league but maybe not slick crazy money. Bonanza Mead said so many issues getting off the ground, getting in and getting on different cable providers and like key demographics of the the foot.

The ACCs footprint, but there was something last week where there was no conference call with ACC ADCs and I think in feldspar that was part of that calling the again all the reporting from that the temperature check was.

Everyone seemed to be kind of okay so I don't know, maybe if I think I get the priority now serve trying to figure out like can you get Notre Dame to come in yet a full-time member which is something that they've been like flirting with for nearly a decade now.

It's been 1010 full years and now you are even more worried. You should be.

Can you get them if you can, but I guess the second best was with you will give them at least nobody else. It's right out of the whole point of setting up the ready if you stay with us, you can apply at least for ACC gives you think of this. Now that the dynamic of their not going anywhere else. If you like is changed once I get it. USC now the Big Ten has USC Michigan Michigan State three very traditional Notre Dame rivals near the rest of him are all pretty geographic things. The money can be like able to ignore them in the money and I do think that like Jim Fields can feel very comfortable in the lease for the time being with the ACCs grant of rights of the meteorite slathered to this early on that day I quit. I can't tell you like the details you every but I just do know that I think people who dismiss that and say will just pee on that and go wherever they want or like yeah $52 million. Not that I quit Maryland nothing like left and then challenge whatever the ACC said so inevitably do that but ultimately like it ain't going to be as easy as some people do you think you could snap that was also with the previous grant of meteorites to have that correct soon. Fact I think Marilyn leaving that was challenge along the lines of the grant of meteorites that was established in 2013 right which long time ago you and I were part of the show when he broke the story that day.

This is this is the deal that was signed in 2016 that theoretically runs through for 20 years against you.

There have to be questions about like if if the University challenge that would hold up in a court of law. If it went to that point right now. Buyout is a pretty serious like barrier for for teams that would maybe look to jump from the ACC but like it's not permanent they're falling behind. And as Joe Julia's pointed this out several times recently on Twitter of like yes Swofford. In this first round of expansion was able to lock down and in as SEC could have been rated. It wasn't but the added your Boston College, Syracuse, Pittsburgh, and just some some programs that just haven't really added a lot in terms of like a fan base or a media market. It was like to establish themselves as a hunter verse the hunt yeah yeah is actually just to show that were not to lose teams but now that you're looking up like oh you didn't get you note they didn't get it they didn't get West Virginia for reasons that I guess are poor academic related or not. I'm not entirely sure about my mom always take that personally. But yes I do think I did a little bit of you were looking down our noses at West Virginia but I do that which took Louisville Big Ten is the actual conference that's doing more of the sort of like oh really looking at your academics to make sure you're in a you know you affiliated University of Oregon for Naji. Also that the lessons everyone should be colleges like whatever you make it go anywhere will become a doctor, or like joining NASA after that's people need to chill out on you where in fact got your degree from my humble opinion, within the other thing to do is Dan Wetzel brought this up. I visited I totally forgot about this until he reported on this late last week which was, he wrote for Yahoo sports.com. By the way, I can't believe in 2022.

I'm still forced to occasionally go to Yahoo's work. Chris Haynes breaks an MBA story or Dan Wetzel has a thoughtful piece on college sports like I cannot fully believe, still here, but this suite was six months ago. The pack 12 ACC rejected a golden ticket football player plan with automatic bids and a cut of a $1 billion revenue pie may go down as the most ill-advised decision in college athletics and if you remember, like for the last year going back to kick off last season.

Jim Phillips apparently with the support of like other coaches in the ACC, including some elected Clawson, who was like a void for stupid like very vocal about like not wanting to expand the playoff. Not wanting it to go to get six teams and there were certain stipulations in terms of what you would get an automatic bid. It does seem like perhaps that that could prove to be like a fatal blow.

I think there I think the current 14 playoff assign through 2026 and think it's either 20, 24, 2026. After that comes time to renegotiate the deal.

The ACCs knocking have nearly as big of a seat at the bargaining table as it did when the first one was hammered out a decade ago so I know it's one of those things were like I take it a day at a time because someone covers the ACC group following the ACC. It's like I guess like it does seem like there could be some pain and some doom on the other side here, but I don't know like until it happens is that you can't. I don't I get I can be worried about Arjun Phillips I would be sweating buckets about it like here I am trying to move the oblique you bilk money on the state of North Carolina so I can move the headquarters down I 77 would really like you probably have bigger problems than figure out where the headquarters the leader supposed to be helped Through a lot of bright guys here ACC sports.com is not saying that Duke in you and see are never absolutely not going anywhere. But, like me, you more hurdles that I think people think to them just completely jumping ship.

That's not to say that it can't happen, but not to leave is the conversation I think were more likely to see a newly defined college football division, then we are to see a decimated ACCs of accents… That might evolve ACC were some of the teams are playing in the division some or not, but the ACC is still by large kept intact as an accident.

I think I could make sense, or just like the ACC looks to add teams and in some time.

You somehow solidified itself or yeah I don't know if the DC event all excited it's not. It's not like it's not dead yet.

They have like options.

The play just urgencies probably of the mind. Here I I looked at the weather today is like to be like this. We can try to plan what I think the dogs to the dog park subduing the data gold show the middle of the week like what you look like I made the mistake of like a weather app actually looking day by day what the weather might be like when I remembered were in July June could have some mercurial like full on weeks if you like summer and then he might pull back a little bit you know you might get there or you might have like three days of rain are the one day of the one week, without any rewrite, but I July July has one weather forecast for the day. You ready here it is given to you. This is whether music North Carolina here is your weather today if you want to do some outside without sweating for 7 AM is when you wake up it's getting 70° and will be 85 x 10 a.m. hi humanity, high temperatures reaching the low to mid 90s with the real feel good all the way up to the high 90s even 100 around three a clock for clock, 5 o'clock there is a 60% chance with thunderstorm if you debate should be about five agrees: but feel about 5° warmer and is down to about 15° right you wake up in the 60s, maybe 55 highs in the mid 70s. No every day your weather is wake up, get up before seven. If you want to walk without sweating 730 to 7:30 PM. It's about 80° to 90° feels like 90 4:55 PM hundred thunderstorm now storm I feel real good for couple hours ball me beautiful sky 10° lighter but that thunderstorm I got it and somehow even though the 60% to thunderstorm going to hit like 1/5 times the gruesome percent that is your July weather report also bring a change of underwear. It's swampy underwear season PGR you know if you want to what the Fed does this deter you from North a lot of summers, I am not the biggest fan of North Carolina summers I infect often like to escape to the Pacific Northwest in this during the summers.

But that's not can happen this year. Unfortunately, not yet stick it out.

It is thinking the weather is the same every go look at your your app cover days and you cannot tell the difference for the next two weeks. It's all the same in July. This is the gold shell
