Meanwhile, back at the ACC: "In a 59-page amended complaint for declaratory judgment — 21 pages longer than the original complaint Florida State filed in December — the university took sharp aim at former ACC Commissioner John Swofford for a number of allegedly self-serving actions it says cost member schools millions upon millions of dollars...That allegation, which is raised repeatedly throughout the document, suggests that Swofford for years was acting in the best interests of his son, and his son’s employment with ACC television partner Raycom Sports, over the needs of the conference and its member schools. The complaint contends that ACC schools have lost $82 million each year in revenue from their Tier II and Tier III media rights as a result of the conference’s sweetheart deal with Raycom, a regional sports network in Charlotte, N.C. (Tier II and Tier III rights typically refer to sporting events that are regional in interest, and not the types of marquee matchups desired by national networks.)" www.on3.com/teams/florida-state-seminoles/news/fsu-takes-aim-at-former-acc-commissioner-john-swofford-in-amended-complaint/

And UMass leaving the A-10 for, uh...the MAC. Good to see that the traditional rivalry between Massachusetts and Central Michigan will be renewed. How does this make sense?

I can understand why UMass would no longer want to be independent in Football. And is playing CMU any more incongruous than UMass currently playing Loyola, Dayton, or St Louis?

Yeah, this one actually does make a bit of sense (in the current environment). But another sad example of college athletics losing its regional past.

Perhaps not, but the difference is that there are at least some teams in the Atlantic 10 who are logical opponents for UMass, while there aren't any such teams in the MAC.

Buffalo is in the MAC, and it would seem to be a very logical opponent for UMass,

On Tuesday, some harsh words from the chairman of the University of North Carolina trustees, below. This is not looking promising for the ACC. "I think that what Clemson is doing is 100 percent proof positive that a significant portion of the membership of the conference is unhappy,” UNC Board of Trustees chair John Preyer told Inside Carolina on Wednesday. “I don't see how it is in anyone's interest for the ACC leadership to try and browbeat its member schools from getting access to information and being transparent. And that's kind of the case Clemson is making.
"I think this shows that what is supposed to be a member-based organization is not being led in a way that represents the best interests of all the members, but instead, it's really representing the bottom tier of the membership at the expense of the top tier, which is why Clemson and Florida State are doing what they're doing. I think that's just obvious."
"I think we all recognize that change is hard, but sometimes change is exactly what is needed. We all have to fight the comfort of complacency. And I think that now is the time to be very open to pursuing all options, including those beyond remaining in the Atlantic Coast Conference."247sports.com/college/north-carolina/article/unc-board-of-trustees-chair-clemson-lawsuit-acc-florida-state-tar-heels-realignment-229014980/
