Well, you are right, ESPN/big media does not have to renew anybody

They can literally walk away from college sports if they are so inclined. But where I think you are off is the assumption that the ACC minus 4 is worth much less than the B12 as it is today. For many reasons, including what ESPN wants from what will be the ACC and B12 level in 2036 will determine that.

ESPN extended ACC agreement to 2036, wouldn’t do that to kill Conference.

You know they don't want to lose schools to Fox/B1X

SEC & B1G are meeting alone constantly, their cooperating to make more 💵

Maybe we just keep adding $ to FSU and Clemson until they stay forever?

They are SOL if the lawsuit doesn’t go their way

You’re right. The ACC has such a long history of smart decisions **

They're making money on the current ACC arrangement, but guessing there is

ACC would’ve fought in court if they’re getting nothing, long term security

I did not say or believe......

Honestly I have plenty of doubt when you talk about Phillips & Babcock,
