JMU could be a good backfill for the ACC in 5-10 years if they keep improving their program.

The ROTATION is set:

Demary | Smith
Solo | Mullins
Stewart | Ross
Karaban | Koroma
Tarris | Reibe

Furphy, Ross the younger, and probably 1-2 other bench developmental pieces.

We essentially replace Northwestern with projected 2025 #10 Illinois and Michigan State with projected 2025 #12 Michigan (though this 2nd one could be any pod 2 team). This gives projected top 1-3 2025 Penn State (and the networks) 2 additional marquee matchups.

So, example, Penn State's 2025 B1G conf schedule would go from (with projected rankings):
Oregon #5
UCLA
Northwestern
Iowa 27
Ohio State 1
Indiana 25
Michigan State
Nebraska
Rutgers
To:
Oregon 5
UCLA
Illinois 10
Iowa 27
Ohio State 1
Indiana 25
Michigan 12
Nebraska
Rutgers

For 2025 pods would be:
1
Oregon
Indiana
Penn State
Ohio State
Illinois
Iowa
2
Michigan
Minn
Rutgers
USC
Washington
Michigan St
3
Nebraska
UCLA
Wisconsin
Northwestern
Maryland
Purdue

Depth chart rounding into form. Something like:

Silas | Malachi | Adams

Solo | Mullins | Adams

Stewart | Ross | Furphy

Karaban (hopefully) | PF Transfer TBD

Tarris | Reibe

This was clear cut. Not making the call is affecting the outcome just as much as doing so.

Tough look for Northeast hoops with Penn State, St Joes, Rutgers, Georgetown, and Pitt all in the 'Major Disappointments' category with Nova not far off and UConn among the 'Preseason Title Contender Flops'

How your sister end up being named Jeremy?

How much did the Bonnies' NIL end up getting for all of Woj's stuff?

Eh, I'll disagree. The RS doesn't mean what it used to w/these mega conferences.

I'm not familiar with this side of the business at all but even if the upfront money was the same wouldn't signature shoe from UA > Nike machine? Or does that not really matter?
