1. Doesn't the very first line say this only applies if there isn't an existing requirement in place? The ACC would have to be run by fools to not have something in place. This all seems like internet kookery.

Also I believe that the ACC is an unincorporated nonprofit. So how does corporation law apply here?

2. How is that a way around the GOR? ESPN would bring a lawsuit which would prevent any team from going to the B16 until the lawsuit is settled. The B16 is not going to invite a school with that going on. So if a school is stuck until any lawsuit is settled, why try to leave early? And that is assuming you win the lawsuit.

Also anyone who voted No to dissolving would likely bring a lawsuit against the Yes voters. The GOR is between the members for the length of the contract. Why would the ACC going away make that contract null and void? All the members still exist.

It would be insane for any school without a future home to vote Yes knowing that they have to deal with lawsuits and legal fees. Why take on that challenge only to go to the B12 for less TV money?

3. Look at CUSA. They had 14 members and lost NINE schools. It did not dissolve. So why would the ACC's bylaws be less restrictive? It is a pretty safe bet that it will take at least 10, and possibly as many as 12 (if ND has a full vote).
