Message: [QUOTE="freescooter, post: 5079033, member: 1023"] I think this is generally correct. But as to why FSU and Clemson would take this new route, what choice do they have? I’m pretty sure they aren’t heading to the SEC/Big 10. So even if they win their suit, I think a low probability, what do they win? I guess they couldbrenegotiate their ACC deal or move to the B12. Unlikely worth the effort. For the mid-tier ACC schools, they are worried they will end up with nothing but if they had a competent commissioner they could be and probably beat, the Big 12. It has better brands. To me Clemson is the one who lost the most in tying their future to FSU. They were never the brand that FSU is. Nobody is saying “do whatever it takes to land Clemson”. They are more of a B-list team that got hot for a couple of years than a perennial power. As a brand they are Washington, not Michigan. [/QUOTE]
