So much realignment drama and no one posted about it?

satire tweet obviously but goes to show you the thought is there... you know what they say about comedy

It has more truth then most of the half baked tweets pretending to be reporters with real inside information.

So nothing guaranteed past 2027?   That's 4 years and then the ACC could be at risk of not having revenue?  Or possibly vastly lower revenue?  And unable to negotiate it outside of ESPN.  Perhaps the ACC conference mates will ultimately be thanking FSU for bringing this to light.  

Of course, citizens in this great state of FL are likely going to be on the hook to pay for this all as FSU manages to drag us in.  

Lastly, the ACC filing is correct.  Hundreds of millions of dollars have been paid to FSU.  They don't care.  They want more.

ACC has an expiration date.  FSU trying to get out by the "best by" date.

FSU should also file against ESPN, just to make things interesting

I am only echoing what many upper FSU boosters have told friends I know..  I hope that you are right.  Either way ACC or Big10, just get us out of AAC

I think FSU hopes for the B1G.  They'd rather go there than the SEC.  The vibe I get from B1G school athletic depts is that they are in no rush, academics still matter, and strong basketball programs also matter.

All of their targets are also not in the ACC.  Kansas is actually one of the most appealing to them, especially if their football program's turnaround can hold and not be a flash in the pan. From my reads, their top two targets to add would actually be Kansas and UNC. But it seems like they don't expect anything to happen until the 2026 season at the earliest. They seem likely to want to stand pat for 2025.

Things can certainly change before then and FSU could be considered, but I would be surprised to see any offers to join come in before the 2025 season and maybe not until it is over - so could be more 2027.
