MEGA Conference Realignment and lawsuits Megathread(Its still personal)

[407cane]

honestly, this is good for us.

FSU will either fight and win - making it easier for us to follow, or lose and leave and pay a **** ton which ultimately would force other ACC members to act as well

get us to the big 10!

Like @TheOriginalCane said, Miami needs to join this lawsuit ASAP

Just when you thought it couldn't get any worse...

So ESPN "forced" us to sign a GOR extension 9 years past when they guaranteed they would pay us...

I don't know whether to cry or cry. Laughing is not an option.

It would be kind of amusing if FSU essentially set everyone free, but the Big Ten/SEC wanted nothing to do with them after accusing their current conference of anti-trust violations.

 

[Zombie-Cane]

FSU is mad at the world. Please offer them a hug.

All I have to offer fspoo and their fans.....................

In case all you “Miami won’t do anything” types missed it, this was from Brett mcMurphy last night prior to the fsu meeting. Doesn’t guarantee anything but your nuts if you don’t think he is well sourced. Situations always evolve.

Florida State Set to Begin Process of Leaving ACC

Read Brett McMurphy's report on the Florida State Seminoles beginning the process of leaving the Athletic Coast Conference.

We need to join their lawsuit, like as of yesterday.

While FSU certainly has capable lawyers working the case, the ACC doesn't exactly have to resort to a couple of paralegals. This thing will get ugly.

ACC Response

Maybe the ACC refs will start ******** over FSU now and leave us alone.

Glee that would be nice.

On the topic of adding members and the subsequent effects, was that not voted on by the conference members?

 

[Empirical Cane]

Let the strongly worded memos fly *******!!

FSU voted against it

@TheOriginalCane @Wake_Cane

I think you both talked about this part before right???

 

[Nickkcin]

So what I'm seeing as the key point to any sort of an argument is the 9 year extension that is optional for ESPN but can tell ACC no money until after 2036? Kinda think that's a huge crack in the armor that can be exposed.
