Message: [QUOTE="DoctorBombay, post: 4668433, member: 626"] Agreed. Right now the ACC is a marriage of convenience & the article basically reiterates that the GOR is the only reason why. ESPN is not willing to renegotiate and the "Magnificent 7" can huff and puff all they want, but it won't change anything. The smart play would be to work together and literally push ESPN to renegotiate the contract. Players do it all the time, whenever their value exceeds their compensation. If the conference stuck together, approached ESPN and demanded a redo, damn the torpedoes and all, ESPN would have to do...something. And of course if Notre Dame joined the party, ESPN would have to act. Whatever happens, this "every man for himself" posture will only hasten the inevitable. It's stupid and shortsighted...but what else is new? [/QUOTE]
