Added 🤞to the title for luck—who knows what works these days

The last time I saw good defense on the Flats, it was 2006-2008ish, and it was exciting and opinionated. We had an aggressive playing style, and players wanted to play in it. You didn’t ask me but—do I EXPECT a defensive miracle seismic shift in one season? No. Would I be shocked to see a...

If you want commentators who do their homework, you have RG3, Roddy Jones, maybe Mark Herzlich, and that’s it. Brock Huard seems to be on Fox now.

UGA had been ranked first for most, if not all of the football season. We had been outside of the top 50 for most of the season. Aside from the Miami comeback, we weren’t really on SportsCenter highlights. Most any college football crew would know about UGA. There are about 20-25 teams that get...

FSU is contractually required to provide all access necessary to support the broadcast of the games. They have to provide good vantages and safe access for the crew and equipment. And probably a lot of other things I’m not mentioning here. It’s not just a grant of rights. It’s a grant of...

You sell me the mineral rights on land you own for 20 years In return, I promise to make you payments based on what I extract Five years later, you find someone willing to pay more for the rights You want out of the deal. You are entitled to sell the land, but I maintain mineral rights and...

What point are you actually trying to make? That FSU pays their exit fees plus buys back their media rights at true market value? That would be a financial loss for them, and there’s no need for the court cases. They just declare their intention to leave and pay what they owe. That FSU doesn’t...

There are other differences, but Preferred Walk On implies the coaches help the athlete get accepted to school Walk On implies they’ve already been accepted PWOs may get other non-scholarship benefits. Neither preferred walk ons or walk ons count against the 85 scholarship limit, unless...

FSU claims their rights are more valuable. If they paid $60 mil per year for their media rights, it would be about a fair deal. FSU is saying they are a valuable enough property that they should get a full share in the Big10–that’s $60 million per year. That sets the market price for their media...

Well, it’s not too bad with a great QB and Megatron or Bay Bay, but otherwise https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/29423583/so-long-goal-line-fade-why-one-nfl-least-efficient-passing-plays-disappearing

Probably the wrong thread, but Pitino is 14-12 at St John’s, ripping his players, ripping his facilities and other support, and saying this year is the most unenjoyable of his life https://sportsfeed.me/@athletic/111955928829552708 Ironically, I brought him up last week, and he’s not having a...

Yeah. We ain’t playing for the postseason right now—unless we make and sweep the ACC tournament. This season is about learning to fly

Washington State and Oregon State are good examples. They were two of the better teams in the PAC 12 last season, and they’re out in the cold for next season. A lot of teams like us could be in the same boat. Speaking of boats, the ACC seems like a lot of teams that are in a lifeboat, and...

Nope, not outside the politics forum

It would have no bearing. The ACC owns the rights to a full slate of FSU home games. FSU can’t transfer them to another conference because they don’t own them. FSU is counting on one of three things That a judge and possibly a jury find something invalid in one of the two contracts...

There was a clear personal insult used in this thread. The post and the quotes have been deleted. People are going to disagree in this and other threads. Insults are not an appropriate response

You just said “You can't argue that FSU can leave but they have to leave their media rights behind. That obviously doesn't make any sense.” That is exactly the agreement that FSU signed on multiple occasions. That is exactly what happens when an ACC team leaves before 2036. The thing that’s...

They can take the estimated distributions from either the B1G or SEC. Neither conference would offer membership at a financial loss, so that’s a floor for the FSU value. Worst case, the ACC is the exclusive broadcaster for FSU home games. The ACC gets money no matter what. FSU is contractually...

There’s no lucky game title this season :(

We would be smart to apply that to debt relief. Arizona just moved to the Big 12 and they’re buried. UCLA moved to the B1G, and they’re filling Chip Kelly’s coaching position on the cheap. 30 or 40 million would make a difference for us
