How can they wall off anything when an ACC member is leaving for the Big10? I don't understand why it would prevent Rutgers from leaving. Clearly, Maryland is unimpressed.
That's true, but I wonder how significant the Maryland "no" vote for the 50 million exit fee will be in a court of law (Biz?). You can be sure that Rutgers would have happily voted "yes", as would UConn. And if what I'm hearing about the state of monetary affairs is at Rutgers, a 50 million dollar buyout would crush them in the short term, even with 24 million / year from the Big10 (with a pro-rated "new team" structure). I could be wrong about that, because I just don't know enough about the buyout legality...
