Texas and Oklahoma paid to get out a year early, then the B12 did 1 to 2031

The biggest thing here is that FSU revealed that ESPN (ESPN was livid about it) has as an opt out of the TV contract for 2027 and they could announce as early as this February they aren’t renewing. The more schools that sue the ACC to leave, the more many people believe they will not renew. Meaning the GOR in the ACC could die within months. I think if UNC sues, it’s over, they are the founder/leader of the ACC. They are the glue that holds it together, and they publicly supported Clemson and to some degree FSU.

That is the big question. If ESPN ops out, what happens to the GOR?
wwhokie1 • 03/28/24 04:02 PM ET
It’s not in ESPN’s interest to opt out
