Message: [QUOTE="HRE Otto IV, post: 4718842, member: 5685"] A few things that we know... 1. The B16 will not make more money now for adding ANY school, even Notre Dame. At best they are getting pro rata. So what incentive does the B16 have to expand now? In 4-5 years, sure. But now? 2. To break GOR a year early it cost Oklahoma and Texas $50M each. That is the established rate. Why in the heck would the ACC agree to $30M a year from FSU? And not only that but $30M now is worth more than $30M tomorrow. If anything FSU should be paying MORE with a payment plan. 3. On top of the GOR FSU will have to pay an exit fee of around $100M. How are they coming up with that money when it took them forever to afford a practice facility? 4. FSU is a huge mismatch culturally with the B16. Also it is a PIA to get there. Additionally FSU is far from the Florida recruiting hotbeds. Long term are they really a good pickup? [/QUOTE]
