***Disclaimer...take it with a grain of salt.*** It won't affect us first hand, but I am hearing a new Power 5 conference is "trying" to be created behind the scenes. Some teams I am hearing is Miami, Florida State, USC (Southern Cal), Notre Dame, and possibly Clemson (pretty sure there are more teams). My source is someone who is tied into Florida State pretty good; Not just your average by season tickets fan. They will be announcing their own network in a couple of weeks (modeling after Texas).
I was told this new conference is going to span from West Coast to East Coast, and one of the requirements is for them to create their own network (or have a network in ND case)... Again for the who told me, and some of the details that he provided , makes me think there is something brewing. FSU getting left out behind the "SEC push" did not sit well and they are trying to "re-position" so they will not get messed over again.
Again, this is just a "strong " rumor I have heard.
