******* hilarious.

You falsely claimed that this was "a dispute between states", and now you are trying to give me ****?

**** off with that nonsense. But, hey, "you stand by the point you made". Sure, the ignorant, ignorant point you made.

Jurisdiction and comity? You don't know what in the **** you are talking about, but you sure know how to toss around words you don't understand.

Good luck with that. And don't blame me for your ignorance and ridiculously incorrect posts.

I congratulate you for your terrible reading comprehension, your complete misunderstanding of what I said, your absolute lack of knowledge of legal concepts, your misreading of the US Constitution, and your stubborn insistence that you made a valid point when you didn't.

Happy?

I've said it since the beginning of this litigation, unless there's some sort of settlement between FSU and the ACC (Clemson also in this boat now), this case is not going to be resolved quickly.

Even on an expedited schedule, you're probably not getting a final answer until mid-2025 at earliest.

Basically, if the leaving schools want to play in other conferences for the 2025 season a settlement has to be reached by Aug 2024.

The next 90 days in court will be very telling, plus if UNC or other schools file suits that also increases the chances of resolution

I’d guess that a resolution is reached within 12 months of now. Keeping in mind that if nothing happens the current term expires in 2026. For several key reasons the option can’t/wont get exercised to extend the additional 7 years into 2033

I remember well dumbfuq ESPN peeps kept parroting that the 2033 date was absolute and iron clad

They have to ANNOUNCE they are leaving by August 15, that it the only ACC conference requirement. Then they play the 2024 season as "non voting members" and their media revenue is applied towards the exit fee when they leave. At that point the law suits to a degree become a distraction and will most likely be terminated ... at the behest of ESPN who doesn't want this to go to discovery and have their "trade secret" documents see the light of day in the State of Florida due to Sunshine laws.

Not a FL attorney, but isn’t there an exemption for trade secrets from sunshine laws?

Not an attorney ... anywhere ... from the comments I have read if the ESPN media agreement is turned over to FSU attorneys in discovery ... "Florida Laws Apply" and I did read a comment that the media agreement would fall under the Sunshine Laws. Cannot comment on the veracity of that however, but apparently there are distinct types of "trade secrets".

Since Washington St changed their law/policy to qualify, I'm now telling people that I'll "soon be practicing law in the Pacific Northwest".

Can I charge that to billable hours?

In fact, I just recorded this porst has 15 minutes of legal research.

I'm going to be soooo rich.
