[QUOTE="g0lftime, post: 947524, member: 2672"] This revenue sharing partitioning is nothing more than a power play by teams outside the tobacco road crowd to start the breakup of the conference. The reason for a conference is strength in numbers and equal status among the members. To start parceling up the revenue unequally is the beginning of the end and does nothing but divide the members. This is classic physcological societal behavior. Those in power change the rules to remain in power. If the ACC does breakup, where are all these teams supposed to go? The SEC teams are not going to take less so FSU and maybe Clemson can make more. Why split up the pie even further. It makes no sense. These big schools have lots of teams to support: soccer, gymnastics, lacrosse, field hockey, swimming, with both men and women's teams that we don't have. They choose to have them. IMHO FSU has never been a good fit in the ACC. They were independent and needed a conference for consistent scheduling and to play for championships. The SEC likely didn't want them and Bowden was smart enough to know he didn't want a SEC schedule every year. Regardless of what happens with the ACC long term, I will still be a GT fan and attend games when I can. [/QUOTE]
