The man just said 2 months ago it made sense, but it doesn't now due to the unstable nature of the current environment, so to say he "never" would, doesn't make sense to me.
I think he and others want more say. It may not come down to 12 being the right number, or it may. They have 4 years to figure that out. But I'd bet if Gee is still around in 4 years, and it's time to renew the CFP TV deal, and the number is 12 (or insert whatever) after everyone had input and a say and more time to review, he would vote to expand.
Curious, what is your thought on why it would serve WVU's best interest to not expand past the current 4 members? Is it the hope that it forces ND to join the ACC and they bring WVU along?
