[QUOTE="CEB, post: 998546, member: 4905"] With regard to the bolded, why is that a strong argument? The agreement is between ACC and ESPN. The option and the deadline to exercise it are between the ACC and ESPN. Why would any member vote be necessary with regard to the espn agreement? The GOR gives the ACC the media rights of all members in order to strike a media deal. The ACC did that. They have the right to amend it. The members themselves are not party to the media deal and don’t get a “vote” on the terms of it. Now, if all members of the ACC did indeed have input and approval of the ESPN deal initially ( which would be the only logical assumption if they now claim they have a right to approve any changes to it) that would also WEAKEN FSUs argument. FSU would have knowingly agreed to the “fiduciary irresponsibility” of which they now accuse the ACC. The arguments by FSU so far seem to be circular… and not terribly compelling. The only interesting thing that has come out of this is the option. I’m not sure that’s terribly interesting either as ESPN likely will exercise it through ‘36. [/QUOTE]
