What's this?

I don't think you understand...

the difference in the GOR versus the media rights. The duration of the agreement can say many things good and bad but, without an actual knowledge of the provisions it is just a WAG and at this point only the real parties to the agreement can speak to the original objectives, both short and long term.

Give me your ways of making ACC football sexier....... -- MrFantastic! 04/04/2021 08:10AM

Add ND and (Texas plus 2-3 friends) - eg: WVU, TT, OK, OKSU, etc. ** -- jesuisvtguy 04/14/2021 1:33PM

Why stop at 20? Why don't we just incorporate the entire B-12? ** -- EDGEMAN 04/15/2021 12:39PM

More teams actually means more rivalry games... -- jesuisvtguy 04/17/2021 9:34PM

How would this look -- Millpoint 04/15/2021 10:00AM

Unless the ACC gets enough support to change the NCAA DI bylaws -- VTHokie2000 04/15/2021 12:21PM

Right. 2 divisions of 10 teams is a disaster. Have to get the Pod exemption ** -- jesuisvtguy 04/17/2021 9:36PM

I am not sure the other conferences would agree to it because -- VTHokie2000 04/18/2021 2:19PM

The concept is to still consider -- jesuisvtguy 04/19/2021 2:03PM

I'm coming around to this idea. -- HOO86 04/14/2021 8:59PM

Yes - that could position the ACC well to be the supreme conference. ** -- jesuisvtguy 04/17/2021 9:37PM

It's simple really. It comes down to a few things -- gman86 04/14/2021 12:05PM

2 Florida Schools need to be top 5 again. ND helps ratings, but they can't -- Stech 04/12/2021 12:26PM

76 replies and not one like -- goldendomer 04/11/2021 12:27AM

I'd like to see us improve some other sports on the ACCN -- Truthahn 04/09/2021 5:22PM

Lacrosse is financially the most feasible -- mrcaniac 04/10/2021 01:38AM

WVU is clearly the one to add -- Truthahn 04/09/2021 5:09PM

FSU, Miami, and VT playing better would make a huge difference. -- wwhokie1 04/07/2021 3:12PM

Get rid of Wake, Duke, Syr, Lou. Add WVU and USCe....... -- CrystalCoveHokie 04/06/2021 7:37PM

Better chance ND joins than USCe ** -- wwhokie1 04/07/2021 2:53PM

I’m not so sure about that...... -- CrystalCoveHokie 04/07/2021 3:19PM

I look at the present day Tennessee in many ways just like USCe -- HOO86 04/09/2021 7:06PM

Any chance of ND joining is way in future. But still greater chance than -- wwhokie1 04/07/2021 3:38PM

ND joining the ACC...sooner rather than later. ** -- Stech 04/09/2021 8:49PM

No, I think we're farther away -- goldendomer 04/10/2021 02:35AM

Just curious. Why do you say that? ** -- Hokester 04/10/2021 09:34AM

The attitude of the fan-base was one of gratitude -- goldendomer 04/10/2021 3:28PM

Unless there is another big change... -- gman86 04/13/2021 11:40AM

If the playoff adds a conference championship requirement we will join that -- goldendomer 04/13/2021 12:03PM

None of the power conferences will go along with it -- VTHokie2000 04/15/2021 1:03PM

Those are all my takes as well, and have been for years -- TerryD 04/13/2021 6:30PM

Even if that was a rule, they can still get 2 teams into the playoff -- EDGEMAN 04/13/2021 3:40PM

About the 2 playoff teams thing... -- gman86 04/13/2021 1:27PM

Conferences do receive more money for having two teams in the playoff -- goldendomer 04/13/2021 2:02PM

Appreciate the insight. -- Hokester 04/10/2021 6:40PM

Not in the cards -- TerryD 04/10/2021 01:21AM

We will see. ** -- Stech 04/10/2021 06:41AM

The 2020 season had a weird effect -- TerryD 04/10/2021 07:45AM

Am interested in why you say that. ** -- Hokester 04/10/2021 09:35AM

Playing all ACC teams seemed too "restrictive" to ND fans -- TerryD 04/10/2021 11:25AM

Well... 2020 was different for everyone -- gman86 04/13/2021 11:47AM

Spot on, the schedule will be very different when the ACC goes to 16. -- Stech 04/14/2021 12:06PM

Appreciate your comments. Glad you guys will be back in Bburg this fall. ** -- Hokester 04/10/2021 6:42PM

Yep, it hardened the position -- goldendomer 04/10/2021 1:07PM

Yes but none of those other teams are ACC geographically desirable...... -- CrystalCoveHokie 04/08/2021 12:24AM

Wasn't GT once in the SEC? ** -- EDGEMAN 04/07/2021 4:19PM

Yes over Bear Bryant's recruiting and the 140 rule -- HOO86 04/09/2021 6:58PM

Stop with the getting rid of schools. It ain't happening!! ACC isn't the -- Lakeridgehokie 04/07/2021 10:45AM

7 ACC games would do it... -- gman86 04/13/2021 11:56AM

This probably makes the most sense -- Millpoint 04/15/2021 11:45AM

Maybe we could offer ACC championship access to ND -- Truthahn 04/09/2021 5:10PM

I wouldn't like that. No championship access without full schedule. ** -- wwhokie1 04/11/2021 12:12PM

Not sure ND would go for that -- TerryD 04/09/2021 5:28PM

Right now the ACC is probably heading down a similar/same path -- VTHokie2000 04/07/2021 11:13AM

I know what you're talking about, but there is a huge difference. -- EDGEMAN 04/07/2021 12:23PM

But that is just it though the Big East did have some football schools -- VTHokie2000 04/07/2021 12:52PM

Back in 2003 I was hoping the SEC would invite VT and WVU -- Maroon Baboon 04/06/2021 11:58PM

FWIW there was some talk in the late 90s about the SEC -- VTHokie2000 04/08/2021 12:37PM

That would have been great* ** -- Millpoint 04/08/2021 12:35PM

If I had to take a guess on what a 16-member SEC would look like -- VTHokie2000 04/08/2021 12:57PM

I agree that the ACC shoulda went for a "go big or go home" approach in '03 -- Maroon Baboon 04/08/2021 3:20PM

In terms of ACC expansion, the ACC should have added WVU -- VTHokie2000 04/07/2021 11:06AM

TBH, not a ton can be done. Several schools that will never be any more -- reestuart 04/06/2021 3:16PM

Slow march to irrelevancy. Would take something drastic -- Colonel Jessup 04/10/2021 09:46AM

Yep. If ND doesn’t come on board (they aren’t), the ACC is screwed. SEC os -- reestuart 04/10/2021 6:05PM

The sad truth about ACC football -- Maroon Baboon 04/07/2021 09:07AM

Yep. It’s like asking why I can’t be an NBA power forward. At 5-10, its -- reestuart 04/07/2021 09:25AM

On target, many folks dislike hearing the truth ! ** -- FLKEYSHOKIE 04/06/2021 8:16PM

That is a tough question to answer because it may require the ACC -- VTHokie2000 04/04/2021 11:38PM

It is always easy to draw this up on paper, but -- wwhokie1 04/07/2021 3:10PM

As I have noted in other posts, don't be surprised if the ACC has a divorce -- VTHokie2000 04/07/2021 5:21PM

Tell me how the court case will go ND v. ACC -- TerryD 04/05/2021 08:09AM

That suggestion is referring to the new GOR -- VTHokie2000 04/05/2021 6:20PM

15 or 16 years from now? -- TerryD 04/06/2021 12:00AM

The GOR could end sooner if certain conditions are met -- VTHokie2000 04/06/2021 09:11AM

Good luck with all of that -- TerryD 04/06/2021 7:07PM

Don't be surprised if the ACC goes through a similar divorce just like -- VTHokie2000 04/06/2021 10:02PM

I won't be surprised -- TerryD 04/06/2021 10:51PM

That has been my point. It can't increase because it has too much dead -- VTHokie2000 04/06/2021 11:00PM

If no large revenue increases, the ACC may be history in 2036 -- TerryD 04/07/2021 08:35AM

2036 is a long way off...... -- 2hhoop3 04/07/2021 09:54AM

I don't think you will see the Big Ten or SEC expand beyond 16 -- VTHokie2000 04/07/2021 09:06AM

No ND is safe. We add to much and ESPN would balk. -- goldendomer 04/06/2021 7:22PM

2036 is so far out. Why -- goldendomer 04/05/2021 8:19PM

I think.... -- 2hhoop3 04/05/2021 8:31PM

A GOR is nothing more than a mechanism to prevent teams from leaving a -- 133193Hokie 04/06/2021 3:09PM

Agree and..... -- 2hhoop3 04/06/2021 3:51PM

If that is true, then what does it say about the ACC when the other -- VTHokie2000 04/05/2021 8:44PM

You have to distinguish.... -- 2hhoop3 04/05/2021 8:52PM

The GOR may be a requirement of the contract though -- VTHokie2000 04/05/2021 9:00PM

I don't think you understand... -- 2hhoop3 04/05/2021 9:17PM

I understand just fine. We just disagree on how close the two are -- VTHokie2000 04/06/2021 08:14AM

I would suggest you need to.... -- 2hhoop3 04/06/2021 10:15AM

It appears we are talking about different things ** -- VTHokie2000 04/06/2021 10:20AM

My guess is he wanted to get a deal done at any cost so his -- VTHokie2000 04/05/2021 8:29PM

This is a tough question -- goldendomer 04/05/2021 10:45AM

Yes. Liberty is good. And I guess ODU might be too. -- Maroon Baboon 04/07/2021 11:07PM
