In a significant move that could continue to alter the rapidly shifting landscape of college sports, Clemson filed a lawsuit against the ACC on Tuesday that portends its exit from the league.
In a filing in the court of common pleas in Pickens County, South Carolina, Clemson calls into question both the ACC's grant of rights and exit fees, calling the withdrawal penalty "unconscionable" and "unenforceable."
It also calls the ACC's view that the league's grant of media rights would allow the league to own Clemson's media rights after it left the league a "nonsensical reading," "wrong" and "inconsistent with the plain language of that agreement.
