[QUOTE="CEB, post: 954252, member: 4905"] If FSU walks, there is nothing the ACC needs to do. The ball is in FSU’s court to try to take their media rights with them. The ESPN agreement is with the ACC. The GOR gives all of the individual schools’ rights to ACC for the purpose of packaging and providing content to ESPN. The ACC receives payments from ESPN and in turn, distributes to each conference member. ACC controls the money, not the individual schools. If FSU walks away, the ACC still owns the rights to their broadcast, still gives those rights to ESPN, still receives payment from ESPN, but when it’s time to distribute money, FSU no longer gets a cut. FSU somehow needs to secure their media rights before leaving. How they do that is anyone’s guess. They can’t really just walk away and “take” anything with them. The ACC has their money already. I suppose there is a scenario where they deny access to ESPN for programming, and ACC would have to pursue them but the circumstances to reach that point are ridiculously implausible [/QUOTE]
