Florida State Memo on Possible Conference Shifting
Here's the memo by Florida State University president Eric Barron on his view of the pros and cons of the Seminoles leaving the ACC for the Big 12. The main FSU grievances with the ACC, as Barron perceives them, revolve around the ACC being too basketball/North Carolina focused, whereas FSU's football emphasis matches that of the Big 12. The major arguments against FSU leaving the ACC have to do with any increased revenues from joining the Big 12 likely being negated by the ACC exit fee, increased travel expenses, and the expectation that some Big 12 schools would not be big attendance draws in Tallahassee.
