How to Destroy the ACC

ACC grant of rights is strong, right? The exit fees are too high. There is no fraud angle for a team looking to exit. BUT, if a majority of teams agree to disband, then there is no exit fee. The ACC has 15 teams, so we need 8 targets. Soon the Big 10, Big 12, SEC will all have 16 teams and the next stop is 20 teams.
So who do you collude with to destroy the ACC? Did you learn nothing from the Cold War? USSR and China? You pit the weaker against the stronger. In our case, it's pitting the Big 12 against the Big 10.
COLLUDE WITH THE BIG 12 to DESTROY THE ACC. With 4 ACC teams guaranteed a spot in the SEC and 4 ACC teams guaranteed a spot in the Big 12, the ACC is done.
Personally, I think the SEC takes FSU, Duke, UNC, UVA. The Big 12 takes Louisville, Clemson, NC State, and V Tech.

Why does the SEC want the GOR to end?
The reality is the SEC doesn't really want things to change with regards to the ACC right now. They'd rather the status quo than have to make a decision between going after ACC teams for long term value and a potential short term loss.
They'd rather punt this until the GOR for the ACC is over.

A vote of 8 teams would not be sufficient to dissolve the ACC. Depending on what the governing law says, it's probably going to require 10 or 12.
Let the ACC keep doing their thing for another 10 years, then we can revisit this subject.

Step 1: leave the conference
Step 2: blame Texas for destroying your prior league for whatever reason
at least, that's been the typical blue print for most other teams that have migrated to the SEC or Big 10

Why do "we" want to destroy the ACC?

If it doesn't say this in the contract, then it isn't true.

For all intent and purpose the ACC is already destroyed. We don't need to do anything. Leave them to their own misery.

How about we take zero.
If you have to take some from the ACC, take Clemson and Florida State and let the big 12 take the other six. This talk about hey let’s take this and let’s take that is ridiculous.

We don't have to do anything. Starting next year, 7 of the top 10 highest grossing athletic depts will be in the SEC. 8 schools that have won a BCS/CFP title plus a 9th that has the potential if they ever get their shite together (A&M).

Y’all need to start thinking transformation…
This shite is going to be organized differently. The 1990 intercollegiate organizational structure will likely cease to exist in 5 years.
I think the schools’ athletic departments break away from the schools, become for profit businesses, and license the logos, mascots, real estate, etc. from the schools. The schools will get paid a royalty and will not be burdened with managing sports in a for profit environment and all the liabilities that go with it.
This would make the NCAA completely irrelevant and Title IX constraints are eliminated.
Conferences can then negotiate large-scale broadcast contracts with different channel providers. The attractiveness of those agreements will be based on the quality of the programs in the respective conferences. That is why I presume the SEC & Big 10 want to further expand.

The rest of the country could be in one giant super conference and they would still be inferior to the SEC.
We have no reason to expand more when the current expansion has not started yet.
