Many college football programs have moved to new conferences recently. As two ACC football programs reportedly look for new homes, the Big Ten is apparently not interested.
Coach Jonathan Smith recently joined Michigan State after spending years as the head coach of his alma mater, Oregon State. Coach Smith was not the only one to leave the Pac-12, though. Many other schools in the conference also departed, leaving only two football programs remaining in the Pac-12.
As more schools from other conferences look for new homes, it appears the Big Ten will not be their landing spots. Recently, college football insider Greg Swaim reported that the Big Ten and SEC are not interested in adding Florida State or Clemson as future programs to the respective leagues. This is significant news, as adding Florida State and Clemson would have made the Big Ten much more formidable of a conference. This is undoubtedly positive news for Michigan State on one level or another. It would have directly or indirectly impacted Smith and Michigan State’s rebuilding efforts in more ways than one.
