North Carolina might be looking for a way out of the ACC and into the SEC, and it may not be alone in that regard.

"The SEC 'is where the Tar Heels are aiming' under the leadership of Chancellor Lee Roberts and incoming AD Steve Newmark should a move occur. The ACC’s decreasing exit fees dip from $93M to a flat $75M threshold with the 2030-31 school year."

North Carolina is positioning itself for an SEC invite in the relatively near future, according to a new report.
