I'll say it 'til I'm blue in the face...the way out is 10 votes

I WAG'd $400 million the other day on another board. It's forgoing 14 years of conference distributions, whatever that figure is; plus the exit fee.

Has it been confirmed that it is in fact 10 votes?****
vtka93 • 07/08/22 04:54 PM ET

daveinop • 07/08/22 05:13 PM ET
$500M according to Dennis Dodd
TabbHokie • 07/08/22 04:02 PM ET
Likely more than twice that. Very onerous. **
133743Hokie • 07/08/22 06:59 PM ET
FSU, Mia, Clem, UNC, UVA, GT, Duke and VT/NCS/Lou/Pitt leave.....GOR =$0.00**

133743Hokie • 07/08/22 07:04 PM ET
