Says the fan of a league with their GOR modeled after ours who's league currently has a member willing to fight through an obscene buy out to get out.

You should be rooting for the ACC in that contest, right? If the courts slap down Maryland's attempt to pay less than full price, if they enforce the by-laws by the letter, that's probably a good thing for the solidity of anyone else's by-laws. If the courts open up a giant loophole and let the turtle walk through it, then schools thinking about making a move will feel like any set of by-laws can be broken if you fight hard enough.
