If you’re in the ACC, you let FSU pay huge legal fees to figure out how solid the ACC grant of rights is, how much it cost to leave. Then you let FSU pay the exit fees, then once you collect those, you jump ship a year or two later, using the FSU exit fee to pay your own.

 

No one without a spot in the Big10 or SEC is voting to disband the ACC when they are making more than they would in the Big12, have easier travel logistics, and the courts haven’t ruled on FSU’s lawsuit yet. 
 

Swaim is making stuff up for clicks.
 

His speculations aren’t worth sharing or the clicks in my opinion. He doesn’t have sources. It’s just BS. 

 

I suspect  this is his source  colon GIF by South Park

I thought that was understood going into the joke.

I read that it takes 8 votes to dissolve the ACC. I’ve seen Swaim speculate to: FSU, Clemson, UVA, UNC, NC ST, Miami, ND, Pitt, Syracuse, and UL all wanting out of the ACC. Based on his reporting they have the numbers to disband, so they should do that and avoid all this legal mumbo-jumbo regarding the grant of rights.

Unless they don’t actually have the votes and Swaim is making it up as he goes. 

This is wrong... it took 12 votes before they added SMU, Cal, and Stanford.

With the conference already widening its reach last year to California with the USC and UCLA additions, stretching deep into Florida seems like a no-brainer," Crawford prefaced before saying, "Miami just wants out of the ACC, period, one source said previously. There is a fear, however, among those close to the Miami program, that the Big Ten is only going to seek out FSU and Notre Dame during its next round of expansion, which would leave Miami without its top choice."

One source who should remain nameless….
