What is the announcement date to leave the ACC for the 2026 season?
Seemed like early August was always the timeframe for that. Just wondering, since 2026 is the start of the CFP mega-contract. Also, since it has been really, really quiet on the realignment front. It was quiet before Texas/OU to the SEC and before USC/UCLA to the B1G.

Yes the earliest date one can leave in June 2027. Most likely June 2030**

IMO it’s a no go unless TV networks are willing to reopen the current deal.**

ACC is going to be paying quite a bit extra to Clemson also.
