    In response to borschtbelt

  • borschtbelt Said:
Agree. FSU is suing over the fee for departure (or being sued). Clemson wants out. I hear UNC is exploring. I hope these schools realize they all can't be near the top of the SEC with any regularity.I guess the $$ is more important. Wait until they pay the golf team to fly all over the country with clubs



a.) I don't know, given FSU's history and Clemson's recent success, I don't think it's unreasonable to think that they can contend in the SEC. As for UNC, they may well be thinking of it in terms of the fate of the basketball team being linked to that of the football team if the same people end up controlling both.
b.) It'll be interesting to see whether they can get out of the ACC contract or not. While it's true that the terms are pretty draconian, it's also true that no one pointed a gun at their head and made them do it; they could have gone to another conference if they had wanted to.
