What is the ACC's end game in their legal battles with FSU? ACC players to watch in transfer portal

- What is the end game for the ACC in their legal battles against Florida State University? Should the conference consider settling sooner than later? In reality, the ACC needs to fight to protect their grant of rights for as long as possible because if that crumbles, an FSU exit could set a precedent for others to follow. Then, the conference would be in a terrible position for the renewal of their TV deal with ESPN. And even if the ACC sees settlement with FSU as an inevitability, they’d much rather settle from a position of strength.
Hosts Alex Donno and Kenton Gibbs break down the significance of Florida’s State’s Tuesday win in court against the ACC. The Leon County, FL judge felt the ACC rushed to file first in North Carolina as a method of “forum shopping.” Donno and Gibbs take a look at what could be a crazy NCAA transfer portal window next week. The NCAA is no longer able to enforce transfer restrictions, meaning players are essentially free to jump from school to school as much as they like. What are the biggest needs for the top teams in the ACC, and which players can the conference not afford to lose?

This will get settled faster than you think, because the ACC and ESPN have made it clear that they can not allow discovery. This would destroy the entire conference since FL requires all information to be made public.
Acc was dead the moment they added Stanford, CAL & SMU.
😂😂😂
The ACC was dead the moment they signed a 20 year media contract.
Stanford and Cal are great institutions. Adds academic value. SMU bought their way in.
@@oldcat87 The ACC is not an academic conference.
@@brothermouzone1307 On what planet was John Swofford on when he signed a 20 year media contract?
@edl7454
See excerpt below. Google it for full story.
The long-awaited ACC Network will launch by August 2019, with the Atlantic Coast Conference and ESPN agreeing to a 20-year deal and rights extension through the 2035-36 academic year in an announcement made Thursday.
Why didn't the ACC fight this hard to grow and expand and be? A better conference
Ding, Ding, Ding!
Kenton, good stuff but I think your argument for fighting FSU and Clemson to the end is flawed. To make that strategy viable, you would have to believe that ESPN would renew the contract and commit billions of dollars before they have certainty over what teams will actually be in the conference.
They won't let that happen. I believe it's possible the ACC is on the clock and needs to offer some level of certainty by February of next year. If the ESPN contract ends, the GOR also reads like it ends.
Protecting, I love how the media assumes that ESPN hasn't told the A. C c they're not renewed
DO you think the All Carolina Conference would tell its members that because I believe you are right about ESPN telling them it was not renewing.
If the ACC does know, they would hide it to last day just like they hid the unilateral extension
The end game is bigger than the ACC. The B1G/SEC will break away from the NCAA to form a premier CFB league, creating a deal with the CFP. FSU & Clemson have P2 invites, with UNC & UVA possibly. The rest of the NCAA will become a developmental minor league. Miami has misplayed badly IMO.
Blame FSU and Clemson all you want, but If the ACC wanted to save itself, it should have paid FSU and Clemson what they were worth by adopting an unequal revenue-sharing plan earlier. Instead, they decided to rig the vote by adding three absolute non-factors in CFB to delay the inevitable, which is the ACC’s relegation to G-5 status. Jim Phillips all but codified the ACC’s inferiority by accepting a lower percentage of the CFB playoff payout than the Big10 or SEC.
The ACC voted to give more money for basketball performance and not football tv ratings.
NC getting ready to jump on FSU & Clemson side
All this who files first assumes that both suits are exactly the same thing. They are not and in the end, if the ACC pushes it, the GOR part cannot be held in Florida or South Carolina.
He is so worried the big12 will not pick up NCST
As BIGXII fan I sympathize with what the TV Networks and the Big two are trying to do to the ACC…who would have thought we’d see the PAC end…. They’re ruining College football …best of luck ACC
FSU only has to win one of a dozen issues. The ACC has to go undefeated.
THIS is what people do not realize.
There will only be 3 Power Conferences in 2027 and the ACC is not one of them 🏈
Big 12 Hurricanes don’t miss your opportunity
ESPN has to renew the contract by Jan or Feb of NEXT YEAR. so the longer this goes the riskier it gets for the ACC
Unless the ACC/ESPN already have an agreement in their pockets.
@@artpowers812
That is allot of faith by both sides, by ACC that ESPN will sign if it turns south and for ESPN to commit billions without any guarantee on what they will get.
Companies don't pay billions without knowing what they have.
@@artpowers812 Not likely , why would they do something like tha? Phillips has extended the deadline it since 2021 without knowledge of the members. How is that for being a slime ball.
@@artpowers812 ESPN won't extend the deal if fsu and clem aren't there. If those teams leave, the conference will be picked up on a discount.
@@edl7454 Empowered by the GOR? FSU is the slimy one here.
Once discovery start they will be a settlement and I can guarantee that there
Kenton sounds like he is in denial and he is salty that fsu is leaving for a prettier girl.
If FSU gets out everyone can get out. Who's staying and what's their value? Some of these teams have no where to go without losing tens of millions per year. Not too mention the self protection of the conference administration..
Acc is toast !!
Welfare teams in the ACC at it again 😂
Problem with your reason for the acc fighting so hard is that the longer it goes their pay day goes down
As of today 4/15 a settlement has already been reached. It will be made public over the next 3 months. FSU will play a B1G schedule in 2025.
Its about money. ESPN has been getting ACC content at below market rate for years. Thinking ESPN wouldn't renew the ACC's contract at a discount with the raising costs of sports rights doesn't make sense.
Would it still be a discount when FSU, Clemson and Notre Dame leave and Stanford, Cal, and SMU takes their place?
They would either have to pay more if FSU and Clemson go to the SEC or lose that content if they go to the Big 10. Notre Dame doesn’t factor in because they have their own TV deal with NBC for Football. With the new schools ESPN would be essential pay for SMU since the PAC-12 deal was $30M/per school.
ESPN would rather pay FSU and Clemson $30M each per year and stay in the ACC then have to pay each $70M per year if they go to the SEC.
Really enjoyed your non homerism content and sticking to facts or at least what you know.
This is guy says his prediction he’s the guy that was saying FSU wasn’t going anywhere there just sable rattling and saying the GOR was ironclad and as far as who has the deeper pockets I’d say the state of South Carolina and Florida by far
Exactly. This is nothing more than fear.
Fear that their cash cow is leaving.
FSU is gone by 2026 at the latest.
More than likely 2025.
Maybe I’m missing something and correct if wrong but isn’t the ACC done regardless of if FSU and Clemson stays? I mean, how can those teams and fans not realize that they won’t be competitive long term if they’re $30M in the hole EVERY year compared to their peers. Won’t be long until all the sports suffer and fall into irrelevance regardless. Blows my mind that all the schools aren’t trying to get out, even if it’s only the B12 that wants you. Better than this dump.
In my opinion North Carolina & North Carolina state will both join the SouthEastern Conference SEC
Delusional
@@earlesteinberg5647 UNC would making the same mistake that Maryland made leaving the ACC to join the big ten if the heels joined the southeastern conference playing at alabama Georgia and LSU in Baton Rouge at night is better
Why would ESPN an extra $100 million each to those schools?
guys fox did it to the pac 12 they got usc and ucla out and into their confrence
When a player has already transferred once and tries it again let him languish in the portal. Multiple tansfers is a huge red flag.
I see ya phi, I don’t agree but keep achieving
Because the GOR is a share and share alike agreement between 14 schools and to let anyone go whose leaving could damage the contract benefits to the Wakes and Cuse type teams. If the ACC does not fight for the teams with no place to go then they are liable to them.
IF FSU and Clemson leaves before the 3 stooges join, ESPN can revalue the contract to ACTUAL value
The ACC already ruined this argument by bringing in 3 replacement teams. Just reevaluate for current conference worth and stand on that instead of suckling at the tit of Clemson and FSU
ACC made fsu and Mami relevant in basketball.
Big12 will add VT, Louisville, PITT, & Miami or Duke. NCST is screwed
WVU fan here… hope ACC survives the storm… we’d welcome any of those teams including NC State if the unthinkable happens… know the BIGXII feels your pain…the argument that the big two are better than the PAC, ACC or BIGXII is overstated…. It’s all about the money.
It makes sense now NC State guy out here crying that needs FSU in this conference. Move to the big 12 dummy
Kenton’s logic is flawed, considering the ACC’s claim to FSU’s media rights wholly depends on ESPN’s TV agreement with the ACC. If ESPN doesn’t opt in to extend the deal next year then there is no way the ACC can stall this out for an additional 2-3 years.
ESPN will not extend. ACC is done. FSU is gone. Sooner is better.
Money hungry acc
They have to agree by February of 2025 smh
I agree, there is no benefit for the ACC to settle anytime soon. They can force FSU to drain their resources to fight the ACC.
Acc is dead
Cause fsu is the acc 😂
Incoming: FSU disinformation bot army.
Wake Fan knowing what is about to happen.
@@edl7454 lol, FSU fan finally being forced to bath & brush teeth. Better spiffy up to crawl and beg to get into the B1G 10 and the ESPN invitational you cry so much about.
@@edl7454 I used to think RX was Monty in disguise but you could be right
ACC is DEAD!!!
63-3. They have to win something. If it was a game they would have quit. After this season of disappointment, FSU won't hold any credibility to be wanted in any division. The possible playoff window has closed.
