How do they GET a better media deal for a crap conference with programs like BC, Syracuse, Wake Forest? ESPN already stated that their INVESTMENT PRIORITY is the SEC. They have been so uninterested IN the ACC that they declined to exercise the option in 2021 to extend the current media contract...

Manny is a pretty accomplished businessman. Involved in a lot of business dealings with Manny Codina in Miami. Kadre is the Chairman of the Board of Republic Services (waste recycling in 40 states), is the CEO of MBB Automotive Group (owns at least 15 luxury car dealerships on the East Coast)...

Manny Kadre is the name. On several UM boards, law school, one of the med schools. Not sure what date Silver's term ends this year. But Manny is listed as the "Chair Elect".

I had a similar hope and had it pointed out to me that she is finishing her term sometime this year and her replacement is already to take over.

Agree, might be a good move for the ACC after Miami / FSU / UNC / UVA head to the P2. It can become the #3 conference and be used as air time filler for slots not of interest by the "big boys".

Things have been quiet regarding the Clemson suit. There was a post on Warchant showing a South Carolina court date schedule ... SC uses Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) to lessen the load on the court system. There is a scheduled hearing for Clemson for Oct 15, 2024 on the ADR calendar...

For actual attorneys out there familiar with the composition clause. One "scenario" that is being put forth as a possibility, by one guy that has actual media contacts, is that ESPN will crater the ACC media deal. Over. In that case we don’t want to end up with an ACC panic media deal...

Going forward after this next "realignment" wave, there will be a P2, nationally broadcast games that draw national viewers, and there will be "the other" conferences that will provide filler on a regional basis basically, and will have very limited audiences. Even starting in 2024 the B10 is...

Agree there is going to be some SEC and some B10 activity. SEC in my opinion doesn't count for UM directly, indirectly it takes programs that compete with us for a B10 slot. Clemson and UNC to the SEC, then Miami and FSU to the B10. FSU & Clemson to the SEC? Then Miami + 1 to the B10. ND staying...

Legally? Come on, everything has been discussed by FOX and ESPN as part of the CFP negotiations. Also, going forward, I believe you have to look at the "ACC Bylaws" as almost fictional documents that neither FSU or Clemson will pay much attention to since a). The ACC has had NO issue acting on...

I just believe that there has been some degree of horse trading going on between FOX / ESPN intermingling realignment and CFP. The SEC might get some teams "directed" to them ... but so will the B10. The media "partners" are working together to a degree. I believe. B10 it is.

Not only will the elite 4-5 star recruits head almost exclusively to P2 programs but the "other conferences" will amount to nothing more than feeder programs TO the P2 with their top developmental players leaving via the transfer portal once they have "proven" their skill sets to be above...

Still believe UM is B10 bound. Period.

If ESPN is able to get FSU / Clemson to the SEC from a media rights point of view, fine, but they will still have to pay the ACC exit fee of $130M and no way Miami pays that fee to go to the B12. Makes no sense. Lot of smoke that ESPN is going to blow up the media deal with the ACC and the...

It is really an issue from the SEC perspective of consolidating the SEC region and NC is a populous and growing state. Believe they would automatically add the carriage fees for both states. Every comment I've heard is the SEC has "0" interest in Miami due to being a small private school etc. As...

Going to be some interesting decisions made. SEC very much wants UNC / UVA for locking up the region. ESPN might prefer the viewership bump from Clemson / FSU into the SEC. If FSU / Clemson end up in the SEC does that open the door for a Miami / UNC to the Big 10?

He is stating that they WILL announce their withdrawal and shortly thereafter ESPN will enact the composition clause ... unless there is a very quick settlement between the parties.

Ah, that's it.

Latest update on Warchant by RegalNole ... the ONE guy who is regarded by the "Nole Community" to have some legit media contacts and the one who has basically said "they are out" and will announce prior to this season. He just commented "he fully expects ESPN to enact the composition clause...

Well THAT is the issue isn't it? A lot of speculation that ... at this point ... UM doesn't have a confirmed P2 landing spot. Most likely changes in the future, as when the B10 does their next media contract. Again ... that is speculation.
