Will the Miami Hurricanes Follow FSU If They Jump to the Big 12? Fan Reaction (Yahoo! Contributor Network)
Being an avid fan of the Miami Hurricanes I look forward to their matchup with the Florida State University Seminoles every year. Lately there have been some rumors that the Seminoles might be interested in leaving the ACC which would be alright by me as long as they continued their series with the Hurricanes as they have for some time now. But, the story gets more interesting as the days press on.

ACC commissioner regarding Florida State and the Big 12: ‘I don’t deal in hypotheticals’ (Dr. Saturday)
ACC commissioner John Swofford isn't going to indulge in speculation of Florida State leaving the ACC for the Big 12. Instead, he said he believes FSU and the conference have a good working relationship and he doesn't expect that to change any time soon. "I don't deal in hypotheticals, I deal with what's tangible," Swofford told media Wednesday during the ACC spring meetings in Amelia Island, Fla. "It's what we're doing as a league with the current 12, soon to be 14 membership league, and we're moving ahead on the basis of that full membership." Rumors of Florida State's defection to the Big 12 have been rampant for the past week ever since Chip Brown of Orangebloods.com, laid out the reasons why a move would be beneficial for the Seminoles . Since then, everyone from Florida State coach Jimbo Fisher to members of the board of trustees has weighed in on the move . [ Dan Wetzel: FSU trustee may have lit the fuse on a move to the Big 12 ] Wednesday, former linebacker Derrick Brooks told the Tim Brando Show that the Big 12 had reached out to Florida State and not the other way around. "From my understanding, it is the Big 12, you know, wanting to talk to us," Brooks said. "Again that's from my understanding; that appears to be the case." However, Texas athletics director DeLoss Dodds, a member of the Big 12's four-man expansion committee, told the Austin American-Statesman earlier this week "there's no traction" in regards to Florida State joining the Big 12 . "They're a long ways away," Dodds said of Florida State. "There've been no conversations between Florida State and the Big 12." New Big 12 commissioner Bob Bowlsby, who officially takes over on June 15, told USA Today he thought conference expansion would be on the agenda of future conference meetings, but declined to specifically talk Florida State. "Conference realignment will continue to be an issue and one we all have to be vigilant about," Bowlsby told USA Today . "I think the topic of expansion will be on every agenda going forward. But it's on every other conference's agenda going forward, too." - - - "Like" Dr. Saturday on Facebook for football conversations and stuff you won't see on the blog.

FSU has to look past money to determine if the Big 12 is the right fit (Dr. Saturday)
The ACC spring meetings begin today and of course all eyes will be on Florida State. The Seminoles have been the subject of possible expansion to the Big 12 because of money, television and geographic placement. But those wishing for this move — especially those in Florida State's camp — should probably pump the brakes a little bit, look past the dollar signs and look at the level of competition. Florida State is not ready for the Big 12. [ Dan Wetzel: FSU trustee may have lit fuse on move to Big 12 ] Yes, the Seminoles have a $2-plus million budget deficit and Big 12 money would erase that problem quickly. And yes, Florida State is in a desirable location, has a great fan base and could probably parlay a move to the Big 12 into its own television network. But in terms of competition, Florida State is not ready to leave the comfy confines of the ACC where it is regularly favored to win the ACC Atlantic Division — though it hasn't won an ACC title since 2005 — for a high-octane, cash-laden conference like the Big 12.
