FSU should just say now that they are leaving the ACC in 2033

Go ahead and get the invite now for the next conference and join in ten years. Would make for an interesting decade of games and anticipation.

FSU could announce leaving ACC in days or weeks according to SI article.

Florida used to block F$U, but now?
Atlee Hokie • 08/21/23 02:43 PM ET
BINGO any dont more ACC fans/institutions should just say the same
Mercury • 08/21/23 10:31 AM ET
Just go back to the early Bowden years
Millpoint • 08/20/23 08:53 PM ET
In theory, they could play neutral site games down in Tampa.
BAMRising • 08/20/23 08:41 PM ET
No they cannot
mrcaniac • 08/21/23 12:12 AM ET
Also, NCAA demands five home games to remain Div I (against D1's)**

Heck I have no idea, just spitballingbut a couple things:
BAMRising • 08/21/23 03:57 AM ET
Would be a possible avenue, I guess. However, ...
Atlee Hokie • 08/20/23 09:05 PM ET
What could they sue for? Scheduling neutral site games?
BAMRising • 08/20/23 10:22 PM ET
Isn't 1 team or the other designated the home team at neutral site games?
Atlee Hokie • 08/20/23 10:42 PM ET
I believe the ACC has a claim on any and all TV revenue

The change in value of the media contract is accounted for in the exit fees

As you have been told repeatedly......
2hhoop3 • 08/21/23 10:12 AM ET
Just had a look at the conference manual. Withdrawal payment is liquidated

See below......

Not a plant. I know I take the cynical view of ACC realignment. That

Couldn’t Fox televise the FSU home games and pay the money
RJHokie • 08/20/23 08:40 PM ET
seems so unlikely to me
MrBayAreaHokie • 08/20/23 07:50 PM ET
Exactly once the memo is delivered all funding to fsu stops
Mercury • 08/20/23 08:23 PM ET
I believe Flunky State is finding that to be the case.
RJHokie • 08/20/23 07:55 PM ET

Big12 guy • 08/20/23 07:54 PM ET
I guess FSU has $300-$400+ million to throw away if this is true.

Atlee Hokie • 08/20/23 09:09 PM ET
I think they will have the money but I think at a min the ACC
Hokie12thman • 08/20/23 07:53 PM ET
Key point acc dont have to negotiate
Mercury • 08/20/23 08:26 PM ET
I agree. ACC schools should be thinking short-term planning.**
33laszlo99 • 08/20/23 08:01 PM ET
Take the money if that is the case. **
Big12 guy • 08/20/23 07:43 PM ET
I kind of hope they just go the eff away at this point. **
VTHokieCub • 08/20/23 07:31 PM ET
I hope they have an SDSU moment, and come back begging.
Big12 guy • 08/20/23 07:32 PM ET
FSU should just say now that they are leaving the ACC in 2033 ◄
HokieAl • 08/20/23 06:03 PM ET
💰 How about an auction? Buy the Noles now, and get them in 2036! 💵
Maroon Baboon • 08/20/23 06:41 PM ET
Yep, they ve been advantaged in the Acc and do nothing. Lack of money...
HokiePail • 08/20/23 07:11 PM ET
I Think it Destabilizes the Program From the Inside
WarHog38 • 08/20/23 06:35 PM ET
I Don't Think Dissolving the ACC is a Realistic Option
WarHog38 • 08/20/23 05:15 PM ET
Don't see ESPN paying the SEC for FSU.
HOO86 • 08/20/23 08:16 PM ET
What lawsuits?**
33laszlo99 • 08/20/23 06:18 PM ET

I Think They Are Serious as Well
WarHog38 • 08/20/23 08:33 PM ET
Getting REAL tired of this. How about this…
Marooned • 08/20/23 05:14 PM ET
Fine them until they change their "problematic" nickname. Play hardball.
Truthahn • 08/21/23 12:18 PM ET
Has to pay something immediately would be nice**

Is Florida State preparing to leave ACC in 2025? | College Football Enquire
WBGV • 08/20/23 04:44 PM ET
Yeah, they re going to the CAA.**
HokiePail • 08/20/23 07:14 PM ET
Probably just talk to gin up support within the M7 for blocking
Marooned • 08/20/23 03:47 PM ET
I can't.**
Maroon Baboon • 08/20/23 03:00 PM ET
They must have a huge nest egg to take that kind of financial hit.
EDGEMAN • 08/20/23 02:44 PM ET
Who would trust them now? I hope not us.**
Truthahn • 08/21/23 12:33 PM ET
Don’t believe they do.
RJHokie • 08/20/23 03:04 PM ET
What in that article.......
2hhoop3 • 08/20/23 02:44 PM ET
Agree. Implies FSU is basically saying, "We don't know where we are going
VTBoar • 08/20/23 03:13 PM ET
A lot of this is a game of chicken so the Noles can negotiate a better pay
sacramento hokie • 08/20/23 04:37 PM ET
At this point they're just defecating on their own brand.
Maroon Baboon • 08/20/23 03:04 PM ET
The only substantive change.....
2hhoop3 • 08/20/23 09:44 PM ET
Not only that they are showing what kind of a partner they will be
Vippie1 • 08/20/23 05:28 PM ET
One of your own is trash talking the conference. SMH Wouldn't it be
