Off Topic?: clemson versus acc filing

Plaintiff’s filing

Definitely not off topic! Similar to FSU’s case. Claims the GOR’s financial terms represent a penalty and therefore not enforceable.

It would be nice if North Carolina and Virginia would file their own lawsuits.

I think Swofford's chicanery involving Raycom and his son will go a long way towards blowing up the GOR.

Would a court typically rule on a declaratory judgment for a case like this, or would it only rule on an actual lawsuit, if one party claims a breach actually occurred? It seems the court might just say we're not ruling anything about your contract, that's between you two. Now if there is an accusation of a breach, file a lawsuit. It seems this case is very complex and no matter what the court would rule, it would be appealed anyway if that is part of the process. Looks like it is going to be a loooooong process.

legal question: what's the point? I mean, if someone is already out there making the arguments, why does anyone need to file a suit? it would be one thing if Clemson did an amicus supporting FSU, but they filed a whole new lawsuit.

I am at the University of North Carolina and Virginia. Chaos is our friend.

Chaos is our friend.

Agree. Plus we get to experience schadenfreude.

Virginia might win their lawsuit, but more likely they would lose on the first day in court.

 

[LoyalFanCT]

Maybe the lawsuits will be decided by the US Supreme Court?

In other words, they have no place else to go, so they are staying.

But if anyone does think of them, they can be packed and ready to go in 30 minutes.

Roundtable: Florida State, ACC finally head to court, Clemson files own lawsuit and UNC takes aim at conference

The two parties will argue whether North Carolina is the proper venue for the ACC’s lawsuit and if the ACC-ESPN media rights contract should be sealed
