If ESPN swoops in with a raise to protect their investment, as they did with the Big12 when the Pac16 was about to happen, then we might just keep the band together. If FSU gets the penalty to $0 then most of the conference will leave. Even if only to form a new conference with many of the same teams to get out of the TV deal. ** Edited by 4x4hokies at 12/22/2023, 12:21:41 PM

A big issue has been FSU's failure to perform. They are as much at fault -- reestuart Dec 22, 2023 at 12:11 PM ET

They've won fewer than 9 games more often than 10 wins since '04.** -- reestuart Dec 22, 2023 at 12:49 PM ET

reestuart • 12/22/23 12:49 PM ET

They won only 7 games 7 times in that period.** -- reestuart Dec 22, 2023 at 01:34 PM ET

That assumes there is a better TV deal out there for those schools.** -- VTCALS72 Dec 22, 2023 at 02:01 PM ET

It's worth mentioning that if FSU succeeds then the Big12 are free agents** -- 4x4hokies Dec 22, 2023 at 12:24 PM ET

4x4hokies • 12/22/23 12:24 PM ET

Maybe - or maybe only UCF is a free agent -- Tailgate Guru Dec 22, 2023 at 12:42 PM ET

I'm fairly certain the bylaws say that you have to use NC courts. -- 4x4hokies Dec 22, 2023 at 01:09 PM ET

CU et al may be letting FSU do the dirty work in hopes that FSU succeeds.** -- IB4TECH Dec 22, 2023 at 12:13 PM ET

IB4TECH • 12/22/23 12:13 PM ET

Which is the smart, and honorable way to do it. -- EDGEMAN Dec 22, 2023 at 12:44 PM ET
