We need to quit this conspiracy now

If you are POWER 5, you are worried about number 1, while you may be tied to a conference, and have 'business' relationships' with the other institutions, who ALWAYS look out for yourself. You work behind the scenes (that means no public or fan involvement or knowledge at all), work scenarios, and if you can add $$$, you need how to get there if need or inhibitors. Clemson, has not gone to the public like crazy FSU has (that is a governance and state problems in florida), they are deliberate. If you are Power 5 and Not doing that aggressively, these are the schools that will be left behind. The key is not make it routine exercise, but work it hard to make sure your university is ready to pounce if anything breaks loose. We cannot be the 'we love conference x/ and its home and we are happy as team.. WRONG

150 players on a college football team? NFL teams only have 53**

NFL doesn't have a bunch of their top players graduate every year**

When this happens, time for the Semi-Pro "college" teams break away

“There is no offer” seems like semantics

I’ve been saying it for years…BOTs are taking over the world.
Hardcore_Hokie • 09/28/23 03:44 PM ET
This seem much more accurate, and from the source.

I'm not a lawyer but I would bet there's a way out - just because it hasn't

Well I am a lawyer, and I can tell you the way out
tarheelblue • 09/29/23 06:40 PM ET
Correct me if I'm wrong
mrcaniac • 10/01/23 08:20 PM ET
It would be tortious interference with contractual or business relationship

Thanks

Everything is negotiable. ESPN has the power to make an offer the ACC
Big12 guy • 09/28/23 03:46 PM ET
Disney/ESPN doesn't have the money to do that right now.**
