Florida State & The ACC Enter Mediation | Seminoles Leaving Soon? | Does Georgia Tech Have A Shot?

Locked On ACC - Daily College Football & Basketball Podcast

Florida State and the ACC are entering mediation this week, according to a report from Ross Dellenger from Yahoo Sports. Mediation was ordered by Judge John C. Cooper in Leon County, FL. The mediator will try to steer Florida State and the ACC towards a settlement to their dispute in order to avoid a lengthy case that could take several months if not years. It’s important to note that the mediator cannot force a resolution. Are the two sides just too far apart to reach a peaceful end? Florida State is suing the ACC in an attempt to break the Grant of Rights agreement and exit the conference.

Hosts Alex Donno and Kenton Gibbs express doubt that anything substantive will come out of mediation. The guys agree that FSU has more incentive to negotiate than the ACC does right now. The conference is trying to draw this out as long as possible. The guys preview the upcoming season opener between Florida State and Georgia Tech in Ireland. What would it take for the Yellow Jackets to pull off an upset on August 24th? The guys discuss the latest rumors about the Big 12 trying to poach a half dozen teams from the ACC.
