The latest expansion news is that TCU is set to join the Big 12. I think it’s a nice move for the Big 12. No matter what the Big 12 did, Texas A&M was too far gone to ever come back. TCU is a good football program whose inclusion in the Big 12 is a perfect …

When Pittsburgh and Syracuse joined the ACC, I thought the obvious choice of realignment of the conference would be a North\South Division. As I learned on twitter not all ACC fans are in favor of this. The possibility is that conference might turn into football vs basketball schools if that were to happen, leaving the …

I like the additions of Pitt and Syracuse and I found this to be a necessary and forward thinking move commissioner John Swofford and the ACC.

Personally one of my favorite sports times of the year, is when College Football and College Basketball are being played at the same time. You know the time mid to late November.

Back in May, I posted on the Georgia Tech Raycom Sport’s blog, that Georgia Tech guard Iman Shumpert was making a mistake coming out this year.
