[QUOTE="Techster, post: 882328, member: 360"] From what I understand, GOR can be voided if ACC dissolves. That is the nuclear option for teams that I want out. In fact, ESPN was pushing for the Big 12 to dissolve so UT and OU could move on from their Big 12 contractual obligations. Let's face it, there will be a revenue gap of 50+ million/year per team for the "haves" compared to the "have nots" in the next decade, and there are some forecasts that it could be $80-$100 million difference. That is what is precipitating all of these marquee blue blood names from leaving conferences they were founding members in. The $50-$100 million question is does UNC/Clemson/UVA/FSU/Miami/GT/Duke/ND...teams often associated with other conferences have enough sway to pull it off if the SEC/B1G tells them they have spot for them. B1G and SEC teams are already making $20+ million more per team than any other conference, and that gap for is expected to become a chasm. Teams like UNC/Clemson/Miami/FSU are definitely looking at the SEC and B1G teams with envy. No way their mega donors and fans want to be in the tier of "have nots" losing that kind of revenue and elite level recruits...and that could tip them to push the red nuclear button. [/QUOTE]
