Going to court was not the right thing to do though

Only the lawyers get rich from that. They should’ve negotiated an early exit from an agreement THEY SIGNED instead of venting in public about inadequate revenues etc. and draining resources.

Can someone remind me; are we rooting for FSU & Clemson to blow up the ACC?
UpstateSCHokie • 04/06/24 12:59 PM ET
Opinions? 1 Is the ACC contract as bad as the leaks suggest?
TDVick • 04/08/24 03:08 PM ET
do we know for sure that is not a standard component of more ESPN contracts
VTCALS72 • 04/12/24 08:47 AM ET
2. By what scenario could the university representatives and ACC mgt, NOT
TDVick • 04/08/24 03:25 PM ET
I don't think this deal was a horrible as you want to make it.
VTCALS72 • 04/12/24 08:54 AM ET
The ACC must fully die in order for schools like VT to move
HokieAl • 04/07/24 10:02 PM ET
I hope FSU loses badly in court and off the court as well **
OrlandoHokie • 04/06/24 09:29 PM ET
I kind of just want to get it over with.**
Air-Ic • 04/06/24 07:06 PM ET
Don't be hasty
MrBayAreaHokie • 04/07/24 08:59 PM ET
I probably disagree with most on this.

INSIDE99 • 04/08/24 12:20 AM ET
Yep. Go Noles. So much damage and impairment seems to have been done that
TDVick • 04/08/24 03:31 PM ET
Almost every eventuality with no ACC is bad for VT
SpeakToDamien • 04/06/24 11:33 PM ET
Wait. Now I like the ACC, but

I'm not sure what leverage they had to negotiate an early exit.
Maroon Baboon • 04/07/24 01:04 AM ET
Let me give you my honest answer inside…
Stech • 04/06/24 05:34 PM ET
Especially FSU promoting ever negative thing they can
VTCALS72 • 04/06/24 04:42 PM ET
Hokie fans absolutely need to hope the ACC survives
SpeakToDamien • 04/06/24 03:17 PM ET
I tend to agree with this because
Vippie1 • 04/07/24 10:09 AM ET
The P2 may not be sustainable
obguthr • 04/07/24 01:40 PM ET
Dunno. I just think the whole thing is a lose-lose for college sports fans.
Maroon Baboon • 04/06/24 01:24 PM ET
A lot of questions about the 70/80 team Super League...
Old Line Hokie • 04/06/24 03:45 PM ET
Personally, I believe VT benefits from stability in the ACC**
VT ChemE 1986 • 04/06/24 01:01 PM ET
But stability means FSU and Clemson staying in the ACC?**
UpstateSCHokie • 04/06/24 01:03 PM ET
Not really.
VPI 1924 • 04/06/24 04:33 PM ET
Them leaving is not a huge problem as long as the remainder
VT ChemE 1986 • 04/06/24 01:09 PM ET
Losing your top two brands isn't a problem? Especially come television
LonghornHokie • 04/06/24 01:13 PM ET
It sure isn’t ideal, but the alternative may be worse
VT ChemE 1986 • 04/06/24 01:16 PM ET
The alternative being the conference completely breaks apart &VT doesnt get
UpstateSCHokie • 04/06/24 01:21 PM ET
I am not, the XII does nothing for either east or west coast teams.
VTCALS72 • 04/06/24 04:51 PM ET
Everything depends on the ACC contract
Big12 guy • 04/06/24 01:36 PM ET
But will enough people care?
VTCALS72 • 04/06/24 04:58 PM ET
There is some truth to that comment,
Big12 guy • 04/06/24 07:21 PM ET
What you are missing
VTCALS72 • 04/06/24 08:26 PM ET
Toledo plays in a regional conference,
Big12 guy • 04/06/24 08:44 PM ET
Slumming it? That is a new low for you
VTCALS72 • 04/06/24 09:09 PM ET
The B12 stopped being regional
Big12 guy • 04/06/24 09:33 PM ET
If VT, Pitt, NC State, and Louisville joined the B12
GALOISGROUP • 04/07/24 11:54 AM ET
We just disagree
VTCALS72 • 04/07/24 12:15 PM ET
If ND maybe
GALOISGROUP • 04/07/24 02:14 PM ET
Sure, if only 3 teams leave the ACC then pick em
VTCALS72 • 04/07/24 04:01 PM ET
Just discussing different things
GALOISGROUP • 04/07/24 04:24 PM ET
You are looking at it differently than me
VTCALS72 • 04/07/24 05:42 PM ET
And I am of the opinion that the 4 corner schools, just like Stanford/Cal
