I Think the GOR is Gone if ESPN Reneges on That Re-Signing

The ACC GOR even specifically implies that ESPN is the media provider in several places within the wording of the ACC GOR. How can another media provider be inserted into that same ACC GOR without a new ACC GOR being legally prepared? Then would FSU & Clemson ever sign that new ACC GOR? Then how would any court hold FSU & Clemson future media rights accountable to the ACC? I think the answer to the last two questions is No. I do hope the best for SMU. I remember the great old SWC games that Arkansas had with SMU. I consider Eric Dickerson & Craig James to be in the same league as Darren McFadden & Felix Jones. Never better pairs of two RB's like that on any college football teams in the history of college football.

GOR isn’t bound by ESPN contract…two separate and not equal entity rights**

Don't think the GOR has anything to do with the contract
