[QUOTE="slugboy, post: 881729, member: 282"] No schools have tried it. Either they don’t think it’s worth it, or they don’t think they’d win the lawsuit. An AD at at a top money making program thinks they’re the smartest one in the room. If you want out, you keep asking winning lawyers if they can break the contract until you find one that says “yes, I can win this”. If FSU or Miami lawyers thought they could win, we’d have probably heard rumblings at the OU-TX announcement. If a bunch of people on a message board can come up with a crazy strategy to get out of a contract , why wouldn’t a lawyer think through their odds with the same strategy? We’ve had about a decade for any team to try and escape GOR. Either everyone is risk-averse, or it’s not that simple. ETA: here’s a longer write up (paywalled, but I read the whole thing). Andy Staples talks to lawyers who’ve examined the contracts: [URL unfurl="true"]https://theathletic.com/3396108/2022/07/01/acc-grant-of-rights-staples/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
