It's been estimated that moving fsu and clemson to the BIG or SEC would

It is it sustainable for 9 years.

Seems strange thinking ESPN would want to kick Syracuse and Duke out

All we need is to put FSU into the P2 tax bracket.

Would it still be strange if some part of ESPN would like to see Syracuse
