My source (yesterday, with a beer in his hand) said basically the same thing. He said ESPN likes the ACC contract and doesn't have anything comparable to take the place of that much content. His contact at ESPN indicated it might take a SCOTUS decision to open the contract to the public. Without...

The ACC annual Spring meeting in 2023 was in Amelia Island. Neighbor said he does not know planned meeting dates other than the 2024 football kickoff meeting in July in Charlotte.

IF espn decides to let the ACC contract expire in 2027, the conference will still own the media rights of the members (even if some leave the conference). The ACC will then use those media rights to negotiate a new media deal with someone else.

That's your POV with no basis. Am I missing something?

Last year Kelly was projected to be a 2nd round pick in 2024. Now, after getting feedback from NBA scouts and improving his off ball skills, he is not projected on any mock draft board. I can believe he is hearing a lot of maybe it's not gonna happen messages. He also saw RJ Davis withdraw from...

You have to unless he and CDS agreed to let him test the market before coming back. I think he wants to compare NIL to the non-NBA money. That doesn't mean he's staying. He could get offered more than we can afford.

My guess is he wants to hear what he can get on the NIL market.

Awkward indeed.

Six, other than Florida, with public universities (prior to the expansion.)

The ACC BOT is made up of ACC member school reps. Every member was a part of the extension decision.

At PG, George and McCollum both played 30 minutes last year. I cannot see how that happens this season. Except in mop-up situations, or in brief stints, I don't know how Mustaf plays the 1 much this year. I think it will be situational for McCollum at the 2 given how many bodies we have there...

I agree, but here is where we stand until/if he commits to GT. PG - George, McCollum SG - Kelly, Terry, Reeves, Mustaf SF - Sutton, O'Brien PF - Ndongo, Souare, Kirouac C - Onwuchekwa We have eight players who would be at home playing one of the two guards spots. All eight are ACC level...

Bacot graduated. Davis has not.

Good catch. Add him to the PF line. That means we have one roster spot remaining to be filled.

I am beginning to think both Ndongo and Kelly are returning. There is almost no chance either will be drafted (neither is ranked in the top 100) and their NIL at GT is probably more than they could get playing professionally in a minor league. UNC has a bigger NIL budget than GT, but RJ Davis...

Given the reality of D1, this at least gives the G5 schools a championship they can aim for. Today it's a "nobody cares" bowl game.

Agreed. A mediator cannot impose a solution. What could happen, and may, is the FSU reps in the mediation come back to the judge and say the ACC is not willing to talk about anything except getting 100% of their ask. In that case the judge could admonish the ACC to negotiate in good faith, but...

Unless the amended filing passes muster the FSU lawsuit is over. More likely the amended filing will be sufficient to deny the ACC motion to dismiss. Cooper gave FSU a week to file. I suspect the ACC will have a week to respond, then a rehearing. He hasn't addressed the FSU motion to unseal the...
