[QUOTE="orientalnc, post: 994765, member: 1199"] The GOR is NOT under lock & key. It is publicly available. It's the ESPN contract with the ACC that the member schools may not have access to without traveling to Charlotte. As my friend noted, FSU is not a party to the ACC/ESPN contract, so they are not necessarily entitled to a copy. Apparently the ACC will allow representatives from member schools to view the contract if they sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA). The ACC is claiming that FSU is in violation of the NDA they signed (those are not the words the ACC used in the revised court filing) in order to inspect the contract in preparation for their lawsuit against the ACC. The "pile on" by the ACC is that they are claiming the disclosure caused the ACC substantial financial damage and that FSU should be barred from the ACC BOT as a result until the competing lawsuits are resolved. This is not an unusual claim. Corporate boards occasionally seek to ban a director from meetings and votes if they suspect a conflict of interest until the conflict is resolved. The ACC said the actions by FSU create a conflict of interest. The revised suit says FSU is acting in detriment to the conference and should not be allowed to sit on the board and vote on questions before the board. And that FSU should pay for the harm they have caused the conference. [/QUOTE]
