Yeah, I'm wondering how this isn't a federal issue since it involves multiple parties in multiple statesI'm no lawyer, but it seems that, since the ACC is HQ in NC, any legal proceedings would fall under NC law. But maybe that needs to be clearly defined in the GOR? Also, couldn't the NC schools and NC legislature fight FSU/Florida and take it federal?
Yea let’s take an issue impacting citizens of Florida to our completely ethical court system in an election year. That should go great.Yeah, I'm wondering how this isn't a federal issue since it involves multiple parties in multiple states
This thing is going to end up at the supreme court... is there any possible way we can start inviting the Supreme Court Justices to the OgBoards.com luxury yacht?Yeah, I'm wondering how this isn't a federal issue since it involves multiple parties in multiple states
But there is not choice of law provision, so it isn't NC. FSU will argue that they are bound by Florida law, and the state legislature will back them. The ACC can sue Federally but by the time anything happens the cat is out of the bag.I'm no lawyer, but it seems that, since the ACC is HQ in NC, any legal proceedings would fall under NC law.

I honestly can no longer keep up with who is in which conference. With the Oregon and Washington moves, what do the conferences look like in 24/25?
Still is the elephant in the room here. If it's as simple as a "gotcha", why play the game of just being loud and not just leave? Unless you know you're going to get tossed around like UW and OUPlease notify us of the moment the cat is actually out of the bag.
So ACC and PAC-6 should unite and be the first to 20! That'll show those fuckers!SEC - (16) - current SEC plus Texas and Oklahoma
Big Ten - (18) current plus UCLA, USC, Oregon, Washington
ACC 14/15- no changes
Big 12 - (14); Out - Texas/Oklahoma; IN - Houston, UCF, BYU, Cincy, Colorado, Arizona
PAC-12 (6) remaining: Stanford, Cal, Arizona St, Utah, Oregon St, Washington St
You will find this interesting, the term actually arises from State Fairs when you could purchase a piglet in a sack, a pig in a poke. Famers would instead try and get one by on their customers by instead placing a cat in the poke, cats being cheaper. But when the customer opened the bag to inspect their purchase, the cat would be out of the bag and the gig would be up.Please notify us of the moment the cat is actually out of the bag.
What does the Florida Legislature have to do with this? FSU could certainly sue the ACC and the other members in Florida State Court. That lawsuit would certainly be removed to Federal Court. A Federal Judge, not the Florida Legislature, will decide the disputed legal issues. One of those issues would be which state(s) laws apply.But there is not choice of law provision, so it isn't NC.
