FSU and Clemson have accepted and will sign the settlement tomorrow. Miami and UNC the biggest winners as those programs will benefit like FSU and Clemson without getting dirty and suing the conference.
As part of the settlement…the total buyout for a program to leave the ACC drops from $200M to $100M after the 2029-2030 season.
There will be more conference realignment after the 2029-2030 season because the Big 10 TV deal will also expire.
You can be sure that top TV draws in the Big 12 are going to want a similar conference revenue distribution structure. Not hard to predict where programs like UCF and Cincinnati will fall.
