[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Litigation is highly unlikely unless 7 or 8 of the current 14 members of the ACC band together against ESPN/Disney.

FSU is making a lot of noise--especially for a team with a losing 5 year record of 29-30-- because the school recognizes that it will fall far behind almost all SEC & Big Ten Conference member schools due largely to the huge difference in conference payouts.[/quote]

The FSU strategy has been to fume and then demand more money. It's gotten comical. If they could get out of the GoR, they would already be out. The rest of the ACC watched Texas bolt the Big 12 even with unequal revenue distribution. Giving FSU more money just ensures that FSU will be more attractive 12 years from now when the GoR expires. I'm sure FSU is terrified that by the time the GoR expires they will no longer be an attractive candidate for any league. They don't win now and haven't won for a long time. Another decade of mediocrity could drop them behind Florida (SEC) and UCF (Big12) in their own backyard, and that's assuming that USF doesn't find a bigger conference. [/quote]
