[QUOTE="slugboy, post: 998025, member: 282"] The column that [USER=1199]@orientalnc[/USER] shared looks useful—it’s clear and talks about copyright and contract law. One key piece is here FSU brings up arguments that might be relevant to monetary amounts but do nothing to argue about the validity of the contract. You could argue that the deal was a swindle, but they’re getting a reasonable market value (more than the Pac12 with USC and UCLA or the Big 12 teams), and it was certainly reasonable market value when they signed it. That’s a silly argument. That their payout values didn’t escalate like the SEC is nearly impossible to argue since they haven’t been a playoff worthy team for a decade—if they and Miami and VT had done their job, the network would be more valuable. As an example, If I argued that my franchise contract hadn’t lived up to expectations, and I’d run a losing or barely break even business for half of the last decade, some of the blame would point back at me.
