Why not?

Miami AND FSU both know they're worth more together. Especially to the B1G.

I'm surprised the SEC sees UNC/UVA as a bigger prize than completely locking up Florida and risking allowing the B1G to infiltrate Florida. If the B1G gets FSU AND UM, not only do they have 2 of the 3 premier programs in the state, they also own the biggest rivalry in the state. I'm surprised...

I prefer the B1G as well..it's a national conference while the SEC will become even more regionalized (the South). Think the B1G is better positioned for all sports and for long term success by being out west and in the northeast as long as they can get some coverage in the southeast.

Currently Florida, the 2nd largest college football tv market, is mostly an SEC state despite having 2 ACC schools. A reflection of how weak the ACC is. If B1G adds FSU, Florida will be a 50/50 B1G/SEC state besides South Florida. If B1G adds Miami AND FSU, Florida becomes a B1G state. It's...

if the current deal doesn't exist any longer (or isn't renewed), couldn't the majority of the ACC just dissolve it and therefore remove the ACC exit fee entirely?

I thought it ended may 31st? Granted I assumed that since her term started on 6/1. Also apparently the next chair is already appointed. https://trustees.miami.edu/trustees/index.html Manny Kadre

Her term ends very soon. I think who they choose next could be very telling.

Rad needs to just shut up.. he's embarrassing himself and the U.... .. he can decline to comment or he can be very neutral in his comments... absolute garbage

virtually every AD I've spoken to believes that some time between 2026-2029, things will look MUCH different nationally. the only thing that could be MUCH different is if the B1G/SEC breakaway and form their own league.... which I think is inevitable.

Jim Phillips needs to compromise and pivot or he's going to be left with no conference at all. When the biggest teams in your conference are suing you so they can leave, you have no future. The best path forward for the ACC is to acquire more G5 type programs, let the true P2 schools leave at a...

just scanned it and it seems like Clemson's argument is that: 1. the $140million exit fee is illegal 2. the media rights only exist as long as Clemson is IN the ACC. So as soon as they're gone, the media rights leave with them

Even if we stay in a neutered/further watered down ACC I'll stop.

Going to be even harder to transfer to one of the P2 if ACC officially gives in to these demands. Miami will have zero leverage if the ACC is relegated. The only leverage we had with the ACC was withholding our vote to expand unless they agreed to concessions when we wanted to leave. The only...

It's been likely to see the SEC and B1G breaking away has been the path for a while now. They don't need the NCAA and they don't need the ACC or BIG12. They want the autonomy to do whatever is best for their leagues/universities. As long as the NCAA and other conferences could help, they would...

I just have a hard time believing there's a scenario out there where Minnesota, Illinois, Northwestern, Vanderbilt, Indiana, Rutgers, Purdue, Missouri, Arkansas, Kentucky, Mississippi, Mississippi State, South Carolina etc are all in a P2 conference and Miami isn't. Eventually the scales will...

The way the athletic department has been run for the last 20 years, Miami doesn't deserve to be in the P2. If we get "relegated", it's nobody's fault but our own and it'll finally be time to disconnect from being a diehard fan since that'll be the final nail in the coffin.

That was the best and easiest way out before we added Cal/Stanford/SMU. Still not sure why Miami agreed to that without using the leverage to get some kind of advantageous exit clause. They could have said "we'll vote those schools in to ensure the survival of the ACC but when we're ready to...

That's the problem. There is no realistic path to doing that.
