UNC WILL DICTATE ALL OF THIS

If they decide to stay and cut some the small pvt schools. ACC will be the p3 and some Big 12 will join.

<$100M to leave in 2030 and $200M now

I suspect that departing schools might also have to pay ESPN separately. **
RandomAsianGuy • 03/03/25 03:55 PM ET
ESPN actually paid Texas and OU's exit fees. **

Don't worry. I will stick around. You will have to bear with me for long. **

I'm not sure the P2 are looking to add up to 7 ACC schools.
EDGEMAN • 03/03/25 05:48 PM ET
I disagree. FSU and Clemson clearly have some kind of plan, or-

HUGE “total cost to exit league after 2029-30 expected to drop below 100M!”
Stech • 03/03/25 01:19 PM ET
Or the ACC does not add anyone else and shrinks in size.
VTCALS72 • 03/03/25 07:54 PM ET
Curious
RandomAsianGuy • 03/03/25 03:41 PM ET
Have always thought th penalty went to the Conference, clearly the networks
Stech • 03/03/25 04:19 PM ET
Texas and OU paid to Fox through the B12.

ESP actually paid Texas, and OU's exit fees. **

RandomAsianGuy • 03/03/25 04:35 PM ET
I would be ok to have USF and UCF instead of FSU and Miami in the ACC.
OrlandoHokie • 03/03/25 03:33 PM ET
Do you think this was a stipulation by ESPN to extend the contract? It

How can you conclude......

First, it was a legit question to Steth, as I'm thinking
Big12 guy • 03/03/25 04:21 PM ET
Might be tiring. .......
2hhoop3 • 03/03/25 04:25 PM ET
Why would ESPN do that? that’s a money losing move. **
RandomAsianGuy • 03/03/25 03:54 PM ET
There has to be a reason the ACC is settling. It's my guess that
Big12 guy • 03/03/25 03:57 PM ET
If so, what is the point of having a GOR?
Truthahn • 03/03/25 04:46 PM ET
Yes there was a reason but I doubt it’s ESPN. **
RandomAsianGuy • 03/03/25 04:37 PM ET
Care to share?**

Baltimore_Hokie • 03/04/25 10:28 AM ET
I think ESPN all along has wanted the ACC for 🏀 ratings. They used to say

SEC is just in the South that works for 🏈, but not as much for 🏀, both
Stech • 03/03/25 02:18 PM ET
All parties "won," that's a negotiation.
Baltimore_Hokie • 03/03/25 01:27 PM ET
This will be the beginning of the end for the ACC as a "power" conference.
Baltimore_Hokie • 03/03/25 11:58 AM ET
It’s not now in 🏈, ESPN renewed w/ ACC until 2036, expect 🏀 acquisitions
Stech • 03/03/25 02:27 PM ET
If the penalty for leaving early is reasonable, you could see
Big12 guy • 03/03/25 12:22 PM ET
The article didn't mention it, but I assume that there will be no new GOR.

Currently, I don't share your opinion that the ACC falls to

College football is better off if FSU, Clemson and Miami go to the B12

Big12 guy • 03/03/25 01:58 PM ET
The schools are going to leave then because 2029-2030 is the window.
Baltimore_Hokie • 03/03/25 02:02 PM ET
That is only if the ACC settles with FSU, otherwise, the full GOR
Big12 guy • 03/03/25 02:06 PM ET
Very interesting. Buckle up for 2030-31, its going to get wild
