Clemson’s legal filing centers mostly on the ACC’s grant of rights, which, in tandem with the ESPN television deal, binds members together until 2036 by owning each school’s broadcasting rights to their home games. Clemson argues that the ACC (1) does not, in fact, control its broadcasting rights if the university leaves the conference as it, apparently, plans to do; and (2) cannot enforce a $140 million exit fee if/when Clemson leaves the conference.
Could Miami be the next to make a move?
Or is this just smoke? Seems like just smoke to me.
Thoughts?
