The ACC Network is the perfect 'pertnership"

ESPN gets content rights, they don't have to rent so many portable studios, the campus's have them . Also alot of events will be announced and produced by local paid university personnel. ACC gets a big revenue stream. They get the most superb college basketball product in the nation, and football isn't bad,. Other sports get broadcast without significant investment by disney.

Disney costs, marketing and getting distribution, national studio and staffing 24 hour staffing. Disnney invest in cordless network and apps.

ACC gets money and exposure, and cross platforms.

The reality of the PAC12 Networks might be worse than imagined -- HOO86 02/13/2019 3:09PM

Even though the P12N appears to be a failure, the approach may not be -- VTHokie2000 02/13/2019 9:26PM

Failure to get distribution is the problem. -- HOO86 02/14/2019 10:55AM

Like betting green when playing roulette. ** -- reestuart 02/14/2019 1:01PM

So the payout for the Pac-12 is 35 to 1 compared to 1 to 1 -- VTHokie2000 02/14/2019 1:13PM

Gotta be close to that. Problem is ever actually getting distribution -- reestuart 02/14/2019 1:18PM

I don't disagree which is why it would be interesting to see what -- VTHokie2000 02/14/2019 1:28PM

Your're right however @VTHokie2000 is correct that games played in the -- seekoHoG 02/14/2019 11:46AM

This is true, but they aren't even getting distribution in California. -- HOO86 02/14/2019 12:54PM

But would Disney, Fox, and CBS sacrifice their money makers -- VTHokie2000 02/14/2019 1:06PM

Disney is doing it for the SEC and ACC networks. -- HOO86 02/14/2019 1:56PM

Key is just the money -- Mercury 02/15/2019 07:46AM

Maybe the Pac-12 would get help with subscribers -- VTHokie2000 02/14/2019 2:00PM

I have BTN and SEC Network which I rarely watch if ever. -- HOO86 02/14/2019 2:13PM

How do you know the Pac-12 has not put out informal feelers with either? -- VTHokie2000 02/14/2019 2:21PM

The trouble is the current capital -- Mercury 02/16/2019 07:26AM

Is the Mouse actually incurring that much cost for ACCN? -- Atlee Hokie 02/17/2019 08:25AM

The ACC Network is the perfect 'pertnership" -- Mercury 02/21/2019 7:46PM

You are right that his comments are telling -- VTHokie2000 02/14/2019 5:16PM

Exactly. Hence why in my OP I left the door open to the possibility -- VTHokie2000 02/14/2019 11:57AM

I understand, but how much of that is due to location? -- VTHokie2000 02/14/2019 11:40AM

The time zone issue affects Tier 1 games. The network controls its own time -- HOO86 02/14/2019 1:02PM

I think both issues come into play. -- Atlee Hokie 02/17/2019 08:23AM

Even though the networks control the time they broadcast games -- VTHokie2000 02/14/2019 1:21PM
