Isn't it more likely to anyone but the "blow up the ACC" mindset

That the ESPN media rights contract has a stated term ending in 2035/36 but with a lookin that was most likely designed to take the temperature of the ACCN after it was up and running. ESPN really has to do nothing to keep the existing contract in force until 2035/36. If they choose to do something different, then ESPN action seems to be needed.

FSU is in the position getting out of the GOR is monetarily advantageous

You’re making quite a leap, from it could to it will. B12 lost Texas, A&M

No one said anything about “pulling the plug”.

If you had stated it that way the first time, I wouldn't have challenged
