You've been very consistent with this viewpoint. I get you are being driven by a  sense  of "fairness." I would just note that in a situation where the two parties to the contract have divergent interests to the extent you "rewrite the contract" to make it [I]less[/I] disavantageous to one party you are making it [I]more[/I] disadvantageous to the other party.

The reason why you have contracts is to promote certainty among the parties.  It provides a framework so that everyone understands what their obligations and benefits are.  If a single party gets to abandon it because they see a better opportunity elsewhere than it undercuts the fundamental purpose of having a contract in the first place.

FSU has the opportunity to leave the conference. It comes at specific costs, which it agreed to at the time of signing.  That is the "remedy" for FSU, perhaps wrongly, believing it can do better elsewhere.

In any event, we shall see what the courts decide on this.
