So if
ahhh that big IF just like just about every Big 12 led podcast, but still if the GOR is upheld in federal court and ESPN says FSU leaving would reduce the payout to the remaining teams then why shouldn't the leaving teams pay to the remaining teams an amount equal to what the remaining schools would get if the entire league stayed together and ESPN continued til 2036?
Say FSU, Clemson, UNC, UVA and Miami decided to leave and ESPN values the remaining 10 teams @ 10 mill less per team per year. so 10 teams losing 10 mil + ACC conference losses = at least 1 billion plus conference and legal fees would probably double that so 2 bill paid by 5 teams = 400 mil per departing team.
Wouldn't that be fair?
