Doesn't FSU have to announce by August 15th if they're going to play in the ACC for the 2024 season? Hopefully someone out there knows the answer.

I read an article yesterday saying that is the case. The article also stated no board meeting was planned so it looks like they stay for now.

I do think they have been posturing so they can try and get a bigger cut of the ACC money pool.

FSU is stuck in the ACC. They are just posturing for a bigger cut of the payout.

They do not need to announce nor will they. The only way they would announce is if they had a Big10 offer for 2024. That isn't going to happen.

Next step would be to wait for an SEC or Big 10 offer for 2025, but that would be next August.

The only other option would be for the ACC to implode and everybody gets out of their Grant of Rights contract.

They beat their chest for a month publicly trying to get the ACC to buy their bluff and it didn’t work. Now they are fricked

The B10 and SEC are not going to take any ACC schools without that school first negotiating a full release of the GOR. Inviting a school under pending litigation over several hundred million would be a disaster. We run the risk of being sued for tortious interference with a contract, plus the risk of the invited school losing the litigation and their home games owned by another conference for 15 years. Never going to happen, especially not when all we would get is a pro rata addition from ESPN.

FSU isn't going anywhere. They were just threatening more force than they could use.

FSU is nowhere close to the situation we just watched in the Pac-12. They are just huffing and puffing about their unhappiness. No one moves out of their house until they find a better one.

You know what is funny......the people who think that FSU is going to go balls to the wall in a legal fight over the Grant of Rights & the ACC contract, and yet they still think FSU will pay attention to the August 15th deadline mentioned in the contract that they (supposedly) feel is invalid.

Honestly it is what it is. The SEC needs to go ahead and take Clemson and FSU.

Can’t let the Big10 snag them. It’s an arms race and if there’s two teams needing a home in the heart of the south you snag them. This keeps the SEC’s regionality in tact while still growing. Not something that the Big10 can say. FSU and Clemson are natural fits in the SEC.

They are going to stay because the SEC, Big10 ain’t knocking on that door right now.

FSU and Clemson are not AAU schools so the Big 10 are not going to invite them. Full stop.

They don't add TV viewers to the SEC. They're not even in the list of Top 10 schools that have appeared in games with 4 million viewers from 2015-2022.

It will cost around 500 million. Yes that's Five. Hundred. Million. dollars to get out of the ACC GoR along with the buyout for the rights.

SEC and B1G aren't having any of that noise.

No one wants FSU nor clemsux. Let them stay in their lower tier conference.
