What's this?

That's a function of market appeal and demand.


The better the team is ranked, the more it gets on ESPN or ABC for football and ESPN for basketball. Texas would be in the mix like everyone else for Tier 1.

The Wake Forest-Pitt basketball game this year wouldn't bump Duke-UNC on ESPN for instance. The Louisville-UNC football game this past season wouldn't bump Clemson-Syracuse. ESPN is going to pick first out of all the games for the best ones. It's a hierarchy. The ACC gets paid for what goes on Tier one. I'm saying what doesn't would then bump down to the ACC Network or LHN. LHN would only get what is played in Austin not on Tier 1.

  @HOO86 a question for you... -- Stech 03/10/2019 07:58AM
  It would be up to ESPN. -- HOO86 03/10/2019 5:44PM
  WRT Texas having Tier 1 rights for everything else -- VTHokie2000 03/11/2019 1:09PM
  Tier 1 is the stuff on ABC, ESPN, ESPN2, and ESPNU -- HOO86 03/11/2019 2:50PM
  I get that, but at the same time isn't there a conflict given -- VTHokie2000 03/11/2019 3:01PM

  I understand that ESPN is going to pick the best games -- VTHokie2000 03/11/2019 4:41PM

  If you mean they wouldn't be allowed to have a "special deal," I agree -- EDGEMAN 03/11/2019 09:20AM
  Actually BIG does give special deals, just not good ones. Ask Md and Rutger ** -- GreencastleHokie 03/11/2019 8:25PM
  Big Ten gave ND a "special deal" for hockey -- TerryD 03/12/2019 06:43AM
  But hockey isn't exactly a "revenue" sport. -- EDGEMAN 03/12/2019 08:25AM
  Still a "special deal". ND and the Big Ten have separate hockey TV deals -- TerryD 03/12/2019 11:41AM
  B1G did one with Johns Hopkins for Lacrosse too. -- HOO86 03/12/2019 4:36PM
  Syracuse has a women's team. -- HOO86 03/12/2019 09:39AM
  Women's ice hockey? -- EDGEMAN 03/12/2019 11:35AM
  2 options -- Wolfman 03/10/2019 3:40PM
  What rumblings? I'll just ask that and won't popo it ** -- goldendomer 03/10/2019 1:12PM
