If the price is too high…they will stay until the Grant of Rights expires. They may spend into lost, fictional income trying to unwind it but in the past the ACC defended largely successfully their exit fees and GoR. It's odd you and others think the jurisprudence has flipped somehow in the meantime.BMX Bandit said:
your head in the sand is why you can't see that the sun came up and there is no doubt FSU is definitely leaving the ACC. the only questions are when and how much it costs.
I certainly do agree FSU's desire is high. So high they might not be lucid. And our fans taking a stand on it is just odd. Who cares?
To be clear: we won't get back at Texas or Bama or Sankey by adding a weaker football school. And FSU is signaling total desperation currently.
Notice Baylor, Tech, and OkState gave up legal means for retaining Texas and OU other than enforcing the contract fully and both states until one year from their contractual obligations. ESPN likely provided the inducement that freed them up. We know switching home and home timing with Michigan games with Big 12 opponents was an example of what ESPN agreed to.
And, no, I don't think shutting down the LHN a year early was material, but the implosion of Oklahoma's deal with Bally might have been since Mouse had to sell it off as part of the consent agreement for the partial Fox acquisition.
Just odd we care at all and defend clearly incomplete understanding of what is going on,
