[QUOTE="Greensboro, post: 2069027, member: 7536"] ACC wanted to stay together & it is yet to be determined if it is a good or bad deal IMO...To much of the PAC12 folks it looks pretty good right now...Stanford & California were happy to jump across the country to take less, Washington State/Oregon State would take it in a heartbeat. If you are talking about the ESPN opt out part yeah maybe...but again a few PAC12 teams have or would jump at it. The whole long term GOR deal the schools agreed to still seems like the worst bit of this for 1/2 the ACC that was panicking after losing MD & realizing they were vulnerable. Personally I blame NC most for this (rightly or wrongly, but I blame UNC for most of the world's problems), they seemed to have the position of power & were willing to pull everyone into the long tern deal/GOR to save the ACC & their position as kingpin [/QUOTE]
