Bubba Cunningham told 99.9 The Fan that he'd rather see FSU be a "good member" of the ACC than publicize thoughts on its potential exit from the conference. "I don't think it's good for our league for them to be out there barking like that."

In an interview with 99.9 The Fan in Raleigh, N.C., Cunningham responded to comments Florida State president Richard McCullough made during a board of trustees meeting Wednesday. McCullough told the board that the Seminoles would “very seriously” consider leaving the ACC unless there is a radical change to the conference’s revenue distribution model.

“I don’t think it’s good for our league for them to be out there barking like that,” Cunningham said on “The Adam Gold Show.” “I’d rather see them be a good member of the league, support the league and if they have to make a decision, then so be it. Pay for the exit fee, wait for your grant of rights that you’ve given and then in 2036, when those rights return to you, do whatever you want.”

The ACC has a television contract with ESPN that runs through 2036.
