It's why I roll my eyes when people post about programs leaving the ACC


Grant of Rights is not insurmountable. They have that in the Big 12 and Texas and OU will likely be leaving before it expires.

Everything is negotiable.

When someone leaving helps kill the entire conference, the grant of rights kind of becomes irrelevant.

Oklahoma and Texas leaving puts the Big 12 at 8 members and no tent pole members. At that point, everyone starts scurrying for the exits so they aren’t left without a seat when the music stops.


ACC programs? They can’t collapse the conference. Best both sides can pull off is trading rights for schools if you have schools leaving the ACC for Bug Ten and vice versa.

But why would someone want to leave the Big Ten for the ACC? If the research consortium part of the conference is that profitable, there is no reason to leave that for a conference with lower athletic payouts and isn’t part of a research consortium worth tons in grants.
