Clemson, Florida State and North Carolina: just send us one big beautiful fee. 
ACC: get Tulane South Florida and Rice on the phone. 

It’s happening. Just keep winning Mean Green and we are golden.

lol.  It isn't gonna be Rice.  Tulane and USF are intriguing, however.

Sources told ESPN that there'd just be one number to exit the league, not the combination of a traditional exit fee and the loss of media from the grant of rights.

"sources".  Gee I wonder if they were from Tallahassee FL or Clemson SC?!

GOR is absolutely the lynchpin.  I'm sure FSU/Clemson will argue otherwise but we'll see ya in court again in 2030 if that's the case.

It does appear that they plan to take it to court.  I do not think an extended courtroom fight benefits anyone. They will ultimately settle.

"The specific financial figures for schools to get released from the grant of rights were not readily available. But the total cost to exit the league after the 2029-30 season is expected to drop below $100 million, sources said.“

Why not Rice?  Private school in a large city with a rich history in college sports.  Rice would fit with a lot of the other private schools in that conference.  Sure they haven't been great at sports of late, however they could turn it around if they wanted to.

Rice has demonstrated over and over again that they will never commit to "wanting" to.  They are fine with who they are: stumbling into a championship once ever decade or so.
