What is 120mil to FSU in the long run? Nothing, especially if you can exploit your student athletes for more money. Jack up tuition, make loans bigger, it won't matter because students can't afford it anyway.

Facilis Descensus Averno. nm - Missiurifarmboy - 8/4 14:54:33

Who's going to pay the ACC $120M exit fee? - TigerMook MU - 8/4 14:13:42

or break the grant-of-rights (nm) - zounami MU - 8/4 15:09:03

$70 Mil SEC vs $30 Mil ACC you pay a negotiated exit fee - FentonMizzou MU - 8/4 16:58:54

exit fee & grant of rights are separate (nm) - zounami MU - 8/4 22:49:43

The incredibly wealthy, exploitive, expensive universities - zoomer 99 - 8/4 14:49:31

that's just the exit fee... there's also a grant of rights (nm) - zounami MU - 8/4 15:16:27

no way a public university can justify that spend - TigerMook MU - 8/4 14:51:17

How much would the extra payout likely be if they switched - JeffB MU

public universities are pretty good at spending taxpayer $$$ - phrejd MU - 8/4 15:06:17

FSU is trying... (link) - withUmizzou MU - 8/4 14:36:49

Private equity investors want a nice return on investment - hou4mu MU - 8/4 14:53:21

Don't ask a logical question. That spoils the fun (nm) - hou4mu MU - 8/4 14:27:14

If most of the league walks, there's nobody to - alwaysright MU - 8/4 14:15:39

There's 14 teams. - TigerMook MU - 8/4 14:23:39

Some of you are still so hung up on the old - alwaysright MU - 8/4 14:28:06

You can't monopolize CFB w/o Bama, UGA, LSU, etc. - TigerMook MU - 8/4 14:40:39

The BIG & SEC can do it together. They can both go to - alwaysright MU - 8/4 14:58:21

if b1g keeps adding teams the only thing they'r monopolizing - phrejd MU - 8/4 14:38:51

In my opinion, that's the goal - Merlin KC - 8/4 17:41:39

I'd say after today, everyone else already is irrelevant - TigerMook MU - 8/4 14:41:27

there are still a handful worth picking up but not many (nm) - phrejd MU - 8/4 14:42:47

At 34 teams combined, they can’t yet - alwaysright MU - 8/4 15:03:46

40 is the number. this is the solution: - phrejd MU - 8/4 15:04:43

I think at 40, the door opens and at probably 48 - alwaysright MU - 8/4 15:07:21

disagree. the still have to manage conference schedules - phrejd MU - 8/4 15:10:59

the other thing is its hard to keep that - TigerMook MU - 8/4 15:35:27

They’ll figure that out. - alwaysright MU - 8/4 15:31:37

they've pretty much reached that goal already - phrejd MU - 8/4 17:07:47

Who's goal is 20 team conferences? Big Ten will want ND at - North co-co champs MU - 8/4 13:39:17

ND will not, and NO chance Duke & Kansas. For SEC either.nm - FentonMizzou MU - 8/4 13:54:31

BTW im sure Cal and Stanford will end up B10 eventually.nm - FentonMizzou MU - 8/4 13:56:36

ND will have to, if it becomes two conference giants that - North co-co champs MU - 8/4 14:14:10

PAC12 smugness is nothing compared to SEC (nm) - zoomer 99 - 8/4 13:18:25
