FSU isn't an AAU school.  Someone said that the school had to be AAU for the Big 10.

 

Correct, but the University of Florida is... (https://www.aau.edu/about/article.aspx?id=5476)

 

Although I put as much credibility in that guy as Tuxedo Yoda.

Whoa, is there a rumor of UF going to the Big12?

I believe Nebraska lost their AAU status before they joined the Big 10.

 

Not sure if they have it back.

Before they joined, after they were invited.

FSU will not leave ACC imo. They just won the National Championship and Heisman. They are on track for the playoff this year.

 

Texas will do whatever it wants and screw everyone they can.... They have a sweet deal with ESPN longhorn network as well... I can't see them leaving the big 12 because they'd no longer get to push their conference mates around. Texas is what caused the teams that could to leave the Big12.

The ACC signed a GOR deal that would make it extremely difficult for any school to leave anytime soon.

Did the ACC and Maryland settle or are they paying the 52 million?

 

Never mind....they settled for 31 million

So we have confirmation the GOR is not worth the paper it's printed on.

If FSU can get double the TV money, why wouldn't they leave?  

 

If USF went undefeated and go into the four team playoff, would we then turn down offers to a P5 conference?  I hope not.
