[QUOTE="orientalnc, post: 997541, member: 1199"] Nepotism is a very difficult issue in a civil case because you have to show intent to give material benefits to relatives that would not have flowed to them on the merits. And the merits in this this case are not easy. Something to realize with this. FSU says they would have made more money as an ACC member if the ACC had made better business decisions. That may be true, but is it a violation of their membership in the ACC? FSU chose to be a member of the ACC at a time when their ability to earn money to finance their programs was being negatively impacted by their status as an independent. Later, when Miami, VPI, and BC joined the ACC they were very happy. Everyday in the business world people make decisions that, in retrospect, seem to the bad decisions or good decisions. It may turn out that the ACC contract with ESPN is the best they could have gotten. But, the quality of that decision is not a violation of FSU's membership contract with the ACC. [/QUOTE]
