No. It would force a breach of contract claim from Espn

Don’t you think ESPN is pushing for this before Fox gets them?

I rarely, if ever, check messages on this board or any other. I barely participate on reddit, really there for car discussions, Jeep XJ mainly now

Just discovered I was banned from participating in the FSU reddit. Snowflakes.

Congrats! You obviously hit a nerve.

Calling a team you have struggled against an FCS team is a total self own. They lost to a Geff coached team. What a tard.

The new contract with ESPN is expected to be worth $1.3 billion annually starting in 2026
- The Big Ten and SEC would combine to earn about 58% of the CFP’s base distribution. (754M total or 377M per conf [23.5M per SEC school & 20.9M per Big10 school)
- The ACC and Big 12 would combine to earn about 32% of the CFP’s base distribution. (ACC gets 17% & Big12 gets 15%(ACC would divided 221M per conf or 13M per school while the Big12 would split 195M or 12.1M per school)
- Roughly (10%) will be distributed to Notre Dame and the 64 Group of Five teams. (ND gets 1% or 13M & the 64 G5 get 1.8M)

Matt Brown, Extra Points joins 365 Sports to discuss his thoughts on the Big 12 & ACC approving the 5+9 model, his thoughts on if this format is good for the Big 12 and ACC, what is better for college athletics, revenue sharing or employment, his thoughts on from the playoff round table, and more.

Wait till all these suits get settled. I read where they will bankrupt the NCAA and cost each school 8 figures. I guess ESPN will be the new governing body. As if they aren't already.

öööö college football.

 

[JJacket]

And Notre Dame finally gets ööööed. Had they joined the ACC years ago, we may have had the bargaining power to get $20 million+ across the board. This is just the first step in a super conference.

I fully expect that the SEC and BIG10 will eventually look at Vandy and Missouri and Arkansas and Northwestern and Rutgers and Maryland and several others and say "not so fast on that equal cut" and Ohio State, Michigan, Alabama, Georgia.....negotiate higher payouts and Vandy and a few others get ACC type payouts.

 

[JJacket]

I did see that Atlanta is now the 6th largest metropolitan area and the third fastest growing metropolitan area in the country - behind Dallas and Houston.

That has to be worth something to some league. My hope is that FSU has to pay a big exit fee and we get a windfall. Then, the ACC dissolves and we get an invite, somehow, to play with the big boys when college football contracts into a league of 32 or 40 or whatever.

All the smart Tech fans who wanted to play Syracuse and Louisville instead of Purdue and Minnesota … are you getting it now, or not yet still?

Can we rewind back to 2003 and get a refund on all these hacks? Life was so much simpler in the "F$U & the 8 dwarves" days.

Contraction is the name of the game for the ACC. Keep the ND contract. Drop back to 9 east coastish teams. ND would be a home game every 3 years.

Here is your new acc. I bet the TV money wouldn’t shrink a dime, but the split is 9 ways.

FSU, Clem, Miami, UNC, NCSt, VT, Pitt, UL, GT

Wake, Duke, Cuse, Stan, Cal, SMU, BC can form their own conference. They can add OSU and WSU.

Not all details have been finalized or announced, but this sounds like a good estimate of what we can expect:
