[QUOTE="CEB, post: 1008264, member: 4905"] We will know soon. If it’s “pretty lucrative” with FSU and Clem, ESPN will stay in the deal thru ‘36. If ESPN is in the deal, GOR holds Clem and FSU in the deal too. Much ado about nothing. On the other hand, if it isn’t lucrative, we’ll know when ESPN refuses the option. That will touch off a legal debate as to when and how GOR ends, and I would expect that to settle just in time for everyone to find homes and the remnants of the ACC to put together a media deal starting in ‘28. ***let me at this point concede / caveat that we don’t know for certain what this option really is… I have my opinion but it’s all conjecture*** With regard to ESPN “increasing the deal” and giving ACC more money, that’s already how it’s structured, is it not? There is an increase provision of some sort in the deal, which is why the payouts have been rising annually. Bottom line, if the deal is lucrative, the deal will stay as~is because the deal has a LOT of term left. ESPN has no incentive to renegotiate to make less money… that would be even harder to explain than how they benefit from moving “assets” to the SEC. [/QUOTE]
