Terry has good points.  I add to his points that the deal would change in value whether UM and USC go or stay but reject the money and extension as they guaranteed games is not the same.  If UM and USC stay but reject the $$$ and extension, there will be a two tiered system of GORs.

The GOR is an issue but if the other schools force a decision, I think they have to let UM and USC leave because the new deal is not what they signed on for. Fundamentally the new deal replaces the existing deal, regardless of how it is worded.  Just a guess on my part, but UM and USC can force the issue.  Plus, Fox must be factored in, who knows what they will do, though I don’t see much money being added to the present deal.

Also, I am not sure the B1G will want to stay together.  Not many in the ACC want FSU unless they change their AD and BoT, play nice, etc.  This deal sets up an us/them situation wit UM and USC pitted against the remaining schools.  Plus, UM is solvent and USC being private is solvent or with manageable debt.
