I agree. Maybe 2 or 3 years away. Quote Link to comment
lo country Posted December 24, 2023 Share Posted December 24, 2023 I'd love Clemson to go to the B1G so I would have a chance of seeing the Huskers in SC. 1 Quote Link to comment
RedDenver Posted December 24, 2023 Share Posted December 24, 2023 The lawsuit is also about how the original contract did not include Stanford, Cal, or SMU. It'll be interesting to see if that matters or not. Quote Link to comment
BIG8forever Posted December 25, 2023 Share Posted December 25, 2023 do you mean registered sports entertainment like the NFL? The NFL is not a sport like the NCAA, it is registered as sports entertainment like professional wrestling. In that regard yes, but more for the ability to modify the outcome of a season, to put it bluntly, free of legal ramifications. 8 Quote Link to comment
Micheal Posted December 26, 2023 Share Posted December 26, 2023 On 12/23/2023 at 10:29 AM, Bball1091 said: I haven’t read the filing either, but I would think they wouldn’t argue that the entire contract is invalid. Rather, specifically the exit fee, within the contract, is/was unreasonable and a restraint against trade. Don’t believe they expect to be successful but rather filed the lawsuit in hopes of being able to settle with the ACC on a reduced amount. Many lawsuits are about posturing and end up settling. My thought would be when you add more parties to an agreement, if not all the members approve the addition, it shouldn't go forward? SMU, Cal and Stanford shouldn't have been allowed to join the conference unless it was unanimously approved. Since they were I would consider the Grant of Rights agreement, invalid at this point? The status quo has changed. 1 1 Quote Link to comment
Head Coach Scott Frost Posted December 27, 2023 Share Posted December 27, 2023 Yea... I don't buy it. Florida state is just using this as leverage to get a better settlement. Methinks they would not be quite as pissed if they were in the big ten already and the b10 decided to add those schools. Quote Link to comment

TGHusker Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 Not good news for FSU - NCAA making an example out of FSU regarding NIL violations. Kind of makes FSU's crying of not making the playoff a bit less credible. https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/nfl/historic-college-football-program-hit-with-major-ncaa-penalties/ar-AA1mQpfA?ocid=entnewsntp&pc=DCTS&cvid=52160d92f1c94c10d45c544b3961a259&ei=66 Quote Well the NCAA infraction committee finally handed down the penalties that we’ve all been waiting for against–Florida State? I was as shocked as most when that didn’t read ‘Michigan’. According to Yahoo Sports’ Ross Dellenger, Florida State football offensive coordinator Alex Atkins is suspended for the first three games of the season after the NCAA claims he drove a football recruit and his parents to meet with a significant NIL Collective leader. Not only will Atkins miss the first three games of the Seminole’s football season, but he’ll also be slapped with a two-year show-cause order for the pair of level two violations. The Seminoles program as a whole will also receive a myriad of penalties. Dellenger reports Florida State will lose 5% of its scholarships for the next two years, seven official recruiting visits, 18 spring evaluation days, and 1% of the athletic budget due to a fine. They’ll also be prohibited from communicating with recruits for six weeks over the next two seasons including Jan. 12-18, 2024, prohibited from communicating with transfer portal players in between April 15-21, and they’ll also be on a two-year probation period. Florida State must also sever ties with the collective representative for three years, and the collective as a whole for one. According to Dellenger, these are some of the most severe and earliest penalties in the 2 ½ years of the college football transfer portal. These terms were reportedly negotiated between Florida State and the NCAA. The violations are alleged to have occurred during the spring recruiting cycle in 2022. Quote Link to comment

For some reason, the NCAA has it out for FSU this year. So, the transfer player went on a visit where this happened, then didn't transfer, stayed with his current team then went to the NCAA and told them everything that happened on the visit? Give me a break. I'd be interested in knowing where the transfer is from. 1 2 Quote Link to comment
