FSU PreZ: " I think there might be people coming after us"


Jul 29, 2021, 5:01 PM

https://www.tallahassee.com/story/sports/college/fsu/football/2021/07/29/florida-state-fsu-football-john-thrasher-president-university-retiring-acc-ncaa-oklahoma-texas/5415221001/



"My point to (FSU director of athletics) David Coburn and to (new ACC commissioner) Jim Phillips is I don't want Florida State to be left behind. I consider us as part of the ACC, but I also know that we have a marquee name, Clemson has a marquee name. I think there might be people coming after us, I don't know, but we've got to be prepared no matter what the options are."




That's pretty darn interesting...

He should get in touch with his medical staff. They have the power to make up whatever rules they’d like, at the drop of a hat.

Agree with him. The potential difference in money, etc...in this expansion go-around...is too great to ignore. ACC is in a tough, tough spot. Very few schools have the notoriety to move the $$$ needle with networks. Clemson is one of them. If the ACC could get ND and maybe steal a PSU, etc....that would be ideal. Just don't see that happening.

To add on.........

I mentioned yesterday in a post that I would keep an eye on FSU here.......their Ath Dept. is not in the best shape. The ACC cannot afford to lose either CLEM or FSU. Both carry big-time name recognition.

That's real talk there. The ACC has the worst TV contract so to think that. They can get a PSU not happening bro.

Maybe he shouldn't have said it publicly. But, he is saying what everybody knows.

******
"At the end of the day, it's all about money. It's about TV revenue, contracts."

On the other hand, it may be a comment made seemingly off the cuff but definitely planned. (Think about Nick Saban's comment about his QB and NIL. It was said on purpose with a purpose.)

It could be part of a design worked out with Clemson being roughly translated, "Hey, Big Ten. Hey SEC. Here we are. Look at us. We're over here. We'd love to talk. Don't forget about us."

I meant to clarify this a bit more....if fsu bolts, I don't see CLEM staying
