The only issue to be worked out is getting Vandy and you to walk away from the larger SEC payouts. Not sure it’s workable.

Stoops is pulling in top 30 recruiting classes with a decent amount of his pull coming from Tennessee, Georgia, and Florida along with going toe-to-toe with Ohio St. in Ohio as well as beating Clemson, Ohio St., and Alabama for the best LT prospect in this upcoming recruiting class from just outside of Louisville. Stoops and staff sell their recruits on getting to play in the SEC and being a 6 hour drivable distance from their family.
The university has also invested significantly in improving the program(new training facility, stadium was renovated significantly in the past 10 years, and they invest heavily in Stoops and his staff).
All of that progress would be heavily impacted with going to the ACC.
And there's literally no financial incentive to leave. Kentucky is one of, if not the, highest revenue generating basketball programs in the country. And it's still out earned by football. Moving to the ACC won't change that fact on top of the ACC contract not being nearly as lucrative as the SEC.
