Interesting new FSU argument in their court case
HokieAl • 05/22/24 09:23 PM ET
Does the GOR actually say that only rights needed to effect the ESPN deal..
lawhokie • 05/24/24 10:04 AM ET
I don’t know enough about it but I like that stance
MrBayAreaHokie • 05/23/24 10:40 PM ET
Because it does not specifically limit it to ESPN
VTCALS72 • 05/25/24 09:11 AM ET
I cannot imagine that a GOR would be written in such a way to allow that
wwhokie1 • 05/23/24 04:20 PM ET
"purpose of the GOR was to motivate schools to stay" This is not likely to
33laszlo99 • 05/23/24 04:39 PM ET
I would argue that was a key purpose and that FSU benefitted from it**

I can't get past the horrible grammar, spelling, and lack of paragraphs.

He’s an idiot and his grammar is terrible, but the worst part of all…

Serious question, are you an FSU/Fan or alum?**

You wrote all of that because I asked him if he was an FSU fan? Which he
Stech • 05/23/24 10:04 PM ET
OK. People are circling the wagons and talking their books. My point is
TDVick • 05/23/24 10:18 PM ET
I want the facts too, but some are trying to create and not find the facts.
Stech • 05/23/24 10:33 PM ET
Opposing views
INSIDE99 • 05/23/24 02:45 PM ET
No problem with opposing views or if you're FSU which you did not answer
Stech • 05/23/24 03:55 PM ET
Ask him if he is now or has ever been employed by the Rohan Law firm**

ESPN can end the contract now

VT ChemE 1986 • 05/24/24 09:18 AM ET
I can't imagine ESPN wants to publicly get involved in any way...
SMU Pony • 05/23/24 09:08 PM ET
We don’t know that ESPN can end the deal now
SMU Pony • 05/23/24 01:16 PM ET
Who is that is trying to prevent the actual facts from coming out? It sure
TDVick • 05/23/24 10:11 PM ET
I don't see it that way
SMU Pony • 05/23/24 10:22 PM ET
Just curious. Do you think FSU and Clemson will be in the ACC this fall?
TDVick • 05/23/24 10:41 PM ET
This fall as in 2024? Absolutely, without hesitation, yes...
SMU Pony • 05/23/24 11:00 PM ET

The GOR Was Changed in 2016
WarHog38 • 05/23/24 09:10 PM ET
If that option actually exists, I'd be shocked if ESPN doesn't exercise it
SMU Pony • 05/23/24 09:22 PM ET
The ACC Network was the reason schools signed the GOR for that length.
wwhokie1 • 05/23/24 04:00 PM ET
No offense, Pony, but it seems as though you don't like the "unilateral"
33laszlo99 • 05/23/24 03:51 PM ET

The networks will make the decision
