From everything I've heard, the GoR is pretty iron-clad and the main arguments being used by both Clemson and FSU are basically the "hail marry" of court cases, unconscionability and violation of public policy. They're more or less trying to argue that their own lawyers didn't do their due-diligence back when they signed the documents, which isn't likely to stand in court. ((BUT I'm not a lawyer this is just what I've read))
I don't love the Cali schools, but I don't hate it. I think the addition helped us make increased revenue, while the schools -- especially SMU -- take less of a cut to still be in a 'functioning' (If only barely) conference. Travel will suck, the move is stupid from every athletic sense of decision making, but it makes money and keeps us afloat, so whatever I guess
The ESPN/Fox angle is that they get to consolidate competition and trim the fat. Remove the underperforming teams to contracts they get for cheaper (Big 12 or G5 conference), reduce the number of heads at the table arguing, and streamline match-ups. Also helps the process of divorcing from the bowl system to an ever-expanding playoff, if they choose to go that direction, since they'll single-handedly control more media rights instead of a bunch of disparate and fragmented alliances.
All in all I think CFB is just NASCARing itself for want of greed. The reasons I watch CFB are growing less and less, and as it just turns into NFL-lite, I'd rather just deal with the Panthers -- they're sorry enough as is. Personally I'd rather just stick with the teams we've historically played and be happy with that, Natty hopes be damned. I just can't make myself be interested in games with no bearing or history. I probably won't stop watching or following NC State football, but I've already lost my interest in watching most non-NCSU football games because of this.3/20/2024 11:40:49 AM |

Not a surprise, for football they have a better argument then FSU.
I am guessing our hopes lie with the UNC BOT insisting we are a package deal with UNC, otherwise we are stuck.
Also feel like its inevitable with UT's lawsuit the SEC and B!G form their own collegiate superleague with their own championships. 3/20/2024 12:09:27 PM |

Hopefully these court cases aren't won by Clemson and FSU and hopefully ESPN doesn't op out of the ACC contract in 2025. I want to see more championships before we are stuck trying to win the 32 team SEC Tournament. 3/31/2024 11:51:20 PM |
