Message: [QUOTE="JOC44, post: 37085, member: 613"] Arbitragegls: Assuming that the BE bylaws provide for the $5M/27 months departure, there's no viable lawsuit as long as Syracuse complies with the stated terms for leaving (or those rules are waived by the conference. If Syracuse had said things that could be taken as a promise that it was staying, there could be a cause of action MAYBE, but only if the plaintiff could prove it did something in reliance on that promise. But I suspect Syracuse was careful not to make any long term promises AND I can't think of something these schools would have done in reliance on such a theoretical (and unlikely) promise. [/QUOTE]
