Message: [QUOTE="HtownOrange, post: 4740419, member: 622"] ESPN and the ACC are beneficiaries of the GOR. Even if the simple majority can dissolve the conference, ESPN has rights and does not have to approve of allowing FSU's - or any ACC team - to take their rights. ESPN has already created the ACCN, invested a lot of money and paid more than the agreement once revenue exceeded the break even point. This has been discussed As to the dissolution of the ACC, I imagine the ACC and teams without a landing spot would argue that the amendments clause requires a 3/4vote, dissolution is an amendment to the formation and must have a 3/4 ote. If nothing else, it goes up the issue in court for a while and the teams cannot go as easily as projected. I don't think we get there because the exit and GOR are cost prohibitive to most ACC schools. [/QUOTE]
