I think it is unlikely, but if the majority leave, I don't think it will

fully hold up in court. The Mag 7+1 will just make a case that when they signed it, it was a totally different conference now that the 8 are leaving. Sure they would pay some money, but they also would likely make much more money in their new conference. Again, I don't think it is probable, but it's much more possible than zero IMHO. One thing, if they don't do it by June 30th, I don't think anybody is going anywhere, but why did North Carolina, Florida State and Clemson vote against expansion when they know if the conference stays together they will make more money? Why do you think they didn't? ** Edited by Stech at 9/12/2023, 12:52:37 PM

Why would Kliakoff want the others to have a vote? It makes no sense to me.**
Stech 09/11/23 08:23 PM ET
He wants the PAC12 employees to be taken care of

Very shortsighted if true, some of those people might be able to stay, not
Stech 09/12/23 09:18 AM ET
He has a contract, and the rest of the employees would want a favorable

My first move if I'm the Beavs-Cougs axis is fire that loser.**

Precedent being set does not bode well for FSU/CLEM/UNC.

They’re not leaving w/o @ least the majority, which they have until June 30
Stech 09/11/23 09:38 PM ET
There's no way the SEC & B1G agree to take 8 ACC teams in the next 9 months
tarheelblue 09/11/23 09:55 PM ET
It’s not probable, but it’s possible, you’ve closed the door completely,
Stech 09/12/23 09:13 AM ET
I suppose it's theoretically possible but the odds are near 0. **
tarheelblue 09/12/23 12:15 PM ET
Maybe, but I think you might be underrating ESPN and Fox on expansion and
Stech 09/12/23 12:28 PM ET
I think you're underestimating the legal and financial hurdles
tarheelblue 09/12/23 12:39 PM ET
I think OSU and WSU.....

Stech 09/12/23 12:52 PM ET
Let's assume they voted against it because they want to dissolve the ACC
tarheelblue 09/12/23 01:01 PM ET
Right now, is the operative word, they say that a lot, & then Texas, OU,
Stech 09/12/23 02:17 PM ET
And all those were only added after the GoR had expired.
tarheelblue 09/12/23 02:47 PM ET
Again, I think you are probably right, but never say never. :-)**
Stech 09/12/23 05:23 PM ET
I don't see it either.
EDGEMAN 09/12/23 08:22 AM ET
Which brings us to the ACC's next move in 2030
ren_hoek 09/12/23 07:26 AM ET
No way that the SEC/B1G take any school with the GOR looming
mrcaniac 09/11/23 10:42 PM ET
Good for them. I hope they can keep the PAC alive
HokieAl 09/11/23 06:17 PM ET
Most excellent.
