Interesting! Looks like Kanas has a lot of say with who the big 12 will invite which will be basketball related. Zags may be still on the table along with other basketball schools 

ESPN, FOX, etc..

The staged moment was brilliant, he both told the ACC give us more money, and the SEC, come get us. All he needs is one of the two to act on it.

From FSU fan on reddit

 

Quote

I think people are missing the purpose of why our AD proposed this: its about who he was talking to, our Board of Trustees.

He's not trying to convince the ACC to go to an unequal distribution model, we know they won't do that. He's basically just starting the process of getting our BoT prepared for and more amenable to leaving the ACC, which will come with a massive price tag.

The revenue model is just an excuse to have this conversation, and also frame things in ways that are very positive for FSU for say, the B10 and/or SEC. He's talked in depth about our viewership numbers, our market area, etc. He's really making the argument as to why FSU needs to get into one of those conferences, and he's beginning to show the BoT the financial woes FSU will face if we don't leave. Its just groundwork to get the BoT to take certain actions in the future.

FSU and Clemson rumored to be in talks with the SEC.

 

This could be great for USF. ACC might need another Florida school (now is the time to shine).

 

I may need to do more reasearch.

Time for FSU and Clemson to UPDATE: Santa Clara City Workers Ready To Go On Strike | Campbell, CA Patch

 

Is this the first time that FSU has been public about not getting their worth? Hopefully Clemson joins them soon.. Both Universities are miles ahead in viewership.

    Last I checked the scoreboard doesn't have a spot for current bank balance on it.

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."
