Sorry - but "A pittance is greater than zero" mentality

should be unacceptable for almost every member of the ACC!!!!

The ACC has just as much quality content as the SEC and B1G when it comes to what content a conference network carries. The fact that the ACC is not getting it's fair share when compared to peer conferences should be cause enough to end JS's reign as Commissioner.

I understand that schools like UNC and UVA may not care that much as they have humongous sports endowments, but schools like VT, GT, etc can not afford to be missing out on the revenue.

Would Fox or NBC pay upfront to have right of first refusal when the ESPN -- daveinop 01/26/2016 12:31PM

Makes sense, although i wouldn't go so far as to call Swofford a genius -- ren_hoek 01/25/2016 2:06PM

How much will the ACC profit from games OWNED by Raycom & FSN? -- chuckd4vt 01/25/2016 6:12PM

It's not about media rights for them. It's about cable subscribers paying. -- HOO86 01/25/2016 10:02PM

Betta believe Raycom will get paid for those games THEY own. -- chuckd4vt 01/26/2016 9:12PM

People demanded SECN because of football. Football brings the money -- Colonel Jessup 01/26/2016 11:47AM

Tier-3 SEC games are just as bad as tier-3 ACC games. -- EDGEMAN 01/27/2016 07:08AM

Because Miss St fans would riot if they were to be blocked from seeing any -- Colonel Jessup 01/27/2016 11:09AM

I agree ACC should try. Not sure how motivated ESPN would be, though -- Colonel Jessup 01/27/2016 11:03AM

Better option is disband and move to top tier leagues. ** -- chuckd4vt 01/27/2016 02:39AM

Well that is really not an option right now. -- Maroon Doom 01/27/2016 2:38PM

Not necessarily. No network, no ACC IMO. ** -- chuckd4vt 01/27/2016 3:37PM

Its alot of poker being played right now -- Mercury 01/26/2016 10:09AM

Good spin. ESPN is outta cash & that's gonna mean more money for ACC? -- chuckd4vt 01/26/2016 9:26PM

Sounds like ESPN has 1 yr to convince Texas -- Red Hokie 01/26/2016 5:13PM

Frankly, if Texas doesn't bring OU along, not good move for ACC............ -- chuckd4vt 01/26/2016 9:31PM

Re: Sorry - but -- 33laszlo99 01/26/2016 06:13AM

So the ACC is gonna have to split things at least 4 ways? Great. -- chuckd4vt 01/25/2016 11:07PM

Thinking long term. ESPN can't afford for even a half-ass -- daveinop 01/26/2016 12:26PM

Just don't see how VT will make a ton of money from games they don't own. ** -- chuckd4vt 01/26/2016 9:16PM

Not suggesting that. My point is... -- daveinop 01/28/2016 2:38PM

I think that the ACC wants ESPN to do it, but there are options. -- HOO86 01/25/2016 10:08PM
