Wonder how much this deal cost the ACC?
On the surface this sounds fairly scandalous.
To say the least. The 2nd and 3rd tier rights were basically not bid out, and the third tier rights were awarded to Raycom, where Swofford's son is an executive. I wonder what the phone calls between FSU Trustees have been like this week!
It gives them the ability to at least threaten a lawsuit. That could easily be used as a negotiating ploy to leave the ACC at a much lower exit fee.
