If there's any verification that the world has been turned upside down, it's this. How many old coaches are spinning in their graves?

Rinse and repeat  

You can certainly understand Florida State and Clemson being frustrated,  but if there was a reasonable way out if the GOR then the top ACC schools would already be gone. 

Florida State and Clemson will continue complaining until 2036, but nothing significant is going to change, since ESPN and the smaller schools have no incentive to fork over more money to the top tier ACC schools. 

When the GOR expires in 2036 it could get interesting. Everyone wants in to the SEC and B1G, but it's unlikely the big 2 will have an appetite  for most of the "Magnificent 7"

Maybe the top non big 2 schools will band together in 2036 and form a new conference that will be able to sign a better per school deal then any of the current non big 2 conferences. Obviously it would be a geographic mess, but with the exception of the SEC that seems to be the trend.

 
I heard Rod Babers or Hardball Harge (sp?) say that the Big 12 was making waves with the Arizona schools.
It's clear that if the PAC 10 can't get a media rights deal that's competitive with the BIG12 then it will fall apart.  This seems like a very real possibility. 

The BIG12 would obviously take the four corners schools that they have been courting.  I would also assume thay the BIG12 would take Oregon and Washington , if the B1G doesn't.
