Notre Dame is still likely to stay independent, BYU hasn't
figured out how to make it work with the Big 12 to date (which suggests there's a chance they never will), Clemson might not actually be interested in leaving a conference it helped to
establish, and at the end of the day, Florida State might decide it is no more attractive to leave a conference
dominated by North Carolina and Duke for a conference
dominated by Texas and, well, Texas.
Once you're in demand, you're really in demand, and the top tier of movies is very much
dominated by
established figures to the extent that up - and - comers must feel that it's impossible to break through.
