Now that the deadline for teams to exit the ACC for 2024 has passed, we break down what happened and what's next.
Among athletic directors, the initial conversations around Cal and Stanford did not yield much. But further discussion changed minds. Multiple administrators in favor of the move described it this way: longer-term security in the event schools like Florida State left the conference. The Seminoles are not the only ones who have looked at their future and evaluated the grant of rights, which gives the ACC control over home broadcasts and media revenue through 2036.
So the discussion last week started to take shape around Cal and Stanford. As more ADs moved in that direction, the university presidents seemed to be coalescing around a"yes" vote. Notre Dame was, indeed, leading the charge. Although the Irish do not play football in the ACC, all their other sports -- minus hockey in the Big Ten -- do, and therefore they get a full vote when it comes to expansion.
So in the end, there was not enough support among the ACC presidents. Adding just to add, with zero financial benefit, did not make sense to the four schools not in favor, according to multiple sources. Still, ACC commissioner Jim Phillips said as recently as July 27 -- the day Colorado left for the Big 12 -- the league would continue toAdding teams in the realignment landscape provides benefits that could help the league's survival.
It should be noted the Aug. 15 deadline was only to withdraw for 2024. Teams can still decide to leave at any time, but multiple sources have said doing so could produce a protracted legal battle that could take years to resolve.
