With what happened to pac 12 and USC and UCLA heading to the BIG Ten.  Won't be long before Notre Dame heads there.  Pac12 is fixing to lose Arizona,Arizona St Utah and Colorado to the Big XII.  

 

 

ACC will be in trouble as SEC will be next getting Clemson FSU and Miami. Big Ten will be looking at UNC Duke and  Virginia.

I’d think Ga Tech before Duke.

Duke, and say this respectfully, ain’t gonna be in the B10 or SEC. They bring absolutely nothing to the table aside from basketball. Nothing. Which is gonna suck because it means UNC/duke will turn in to UL/UK where they’ll play once a year on a neutral court. 
 

UVA, UNC, NCST, Louisville, ND would be the ACC teams most likely to head to the big ten. 
 

All current ACC teams have an agreement that if any team leaves for another conference they will forfeit their money. It ain’t happening in the next decade but in 20 years there will probably only be 2-3 super conferences. B12 and PAC12 are toast ACC would probably be next but That’s a lot of what ifs.

ACC won’t be dismantled, if at all, for at least 10-15 years. How many years they have left on that revenue sharing agreement that Swofford pushed through. It’s way too much money they would be forfeiting.

The SEC took Missouri. They'll take Duke.

How come no other conference has taken Kansas? An elite bball program with garbage teams everywhere else.
Duke football is a complete joke. There’s high schools with better stadiums  

Duke is a small Christian private school that brings nothing to the table aside from basketball. Realistically, Duke would be a much better fit to the Big East. Can link up with all the other private basketball schools.

Yep, SEC wants the cash cow football teams. Football brings in the money.

Yep. And I hope that if UNC ever has to leave they would fight for duke to bring them along to the big ten but sorry it ain’t happening. Duke does not have the attendance, facilities, endowment, alumni base, etc to transition to a super conference especially one that places an emphasis on football.

Duke playing in the SEC in Football would be comical. They should just give them a mercy rule and shut off the score board at 50.

If the ACC does get picked apart from B10 and SEC - duke fans are going to get a gigantic kick in the balls. Reality check time when they have to go to the big East.

      I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
