Bobby Bowden $crewed FSU when he had a chance to get in the SEC and blew it. FSU is going to continue to pay for that bad decision for years.

At least they don't have to pay for shoes.That should help.

They've eaten those years. A statement like that from their AD with such a specific timeline makes me think there are already some handshake deals in place. Makes me wonder who is coming with them (I'm assuming FSU will end up in the SEC, not the B1G). We've heard North Carolina rumors pretty frequently during the past year.

I mean, on one hand its Florida State. On the other hand, its Florida State. That knife cuts both ways.
They've been dangling in the breeze for a while as the ACC sort of drifts along. You would think the SEC would have snapped them up a while ago if the interest was there.

As Greg Sankey put it a year or two ago, the ACC teams "have a grant of rights problem". Until that is resolved, the B1G and SEC aren't touching any ACC school since the ACC owns their media rights thru 2036.

A very good point.

Getting those 4 would be a pretty good pull if we are forced to do it. That being said, I don’t want it

It was resolved when FSU and Clemson settled with the ACC last year

Nope, they are paying every day right now. What would their viewing audience be if they got to play Bama, Georgia, and Texas compared to NC State, Wake Forest and Duke? Top recruits do not want to play against ACC teams in tiny stadiums.

Nah, he is just wishcasting, and telling his fanbase what they want to hear.

I completely agree. I also don't want to live in a world where the B1G has more power and resources than the SEC, so I accept that further expansion is inevitable to keep pace.

Partially resolved. And based on your AD's statements, there might be a deal in the works to completely resolve it.

We already own Florida, so we don't need them.

It's not as burdensome as before and shouldn't keep anyone that wants out from leaving

If we get Clemson I want to give SC the boot as a permanent rival. Clemson is always a great game and it has been a fairly regular one even with them being in a different conference

Was he wrong though? FSU won 3 natties after joining the ACC, times change

CFB will officially go full pants on head retarded if FSU is in the B10 over the SEC.

Disagree, there were estimates it would have cost ~$600 M to buy out of that contract - the ACC wouldn’t actually provide a number until they were sued
After them and Clemson sued, it dropped down to like $100 M and it goes down to like $30 M in 2030 or something

I feel like we hit that moment when USC and UCLA joined the B1G.
