[QUOTE="RonJohn, post: 817751, member: 2426"] I haven't read the contract. However, I seriously doubt that ESPN's lawyers would allow the contract to say that adding any team would make the contract null and void. I seriously doubt there is such a condition that the ACC can shop the media rights to someone else. More likely than that is that if another team is added the rights for games at that school are not automatically added. If that were the case, the ACC could try to sell WVU's home games to someone else. They could use the threat of ACC games on Fox to try to get ESPN to renegotiate the entire contract. If I were ESPN, and the conference wanted hundreds or when tens of millions of dollars for including WVU games, I would tell them to sell those games to Fox. [/QUOTE]
