Very interesting from FSU. Things might change sooner rather than later.

Also from a tweet today as their BoT meet today. "board of trustees member Justin Roth says ideally, school has a plan to leave by Aug. 15th but given how tough that would be, "our goal as a university would be to figure out how to leave this TV deal in the next 12 months." Says staying in ACC is "death by a 1000 cuts""

4thosehokies 08/03/23 07:20 AM ET
4 years ago it was probably good. Then the SEC and B10 got deals north

There were a lot of promises attached **

Yes, it was
OrangeHokieFan 08/03/23 07:41 AM ET
It sure did. **
RJHokie 08/02/23 07:44 PM ET
It would be an interesting debate on whether the ACCN is/was the ACC
VTHokie2000 08/02/23 07:48 PM ET
I don’t believe the ACC had any choice if they wanted the ACCN.
RJHokie 08/02/23 08:38 PM ET
The ACC did have a choice though because it could have always said no to
VTHokie2000 08/03/23 12:19 AM ET
