Message: [QUOTE="HtownOrange, post: 543247, member: 622"] Agreed, but the ACC will get copies of any and all communications to or from Delaney/B1G/each school, at least from the Maryland end. Then they will request to depose these individuals and if the individuals choose not to be deposed, the ACC will spin this in court. Without the depositions, this will likely bode ill for Maryland, especially if there is any evidence of anything underhanded. If there is anty stonewalling, the ACC may simply add the B1G, BTN and each school as a co-conspirator/co-defendant, charge them with interference and then they fall under the NC Court jurisdiction. The Federal courts may still be in play, either way. Obviously, this can backfire, but the ACC has the upper hand in that they have the contract on their side. Maryland has the burden of proof right now to prove why the contract is invalid or punitive and they must do so with clean hands. [/QUOTE]
