What's this?

What's your thoughts on an ACC network created and run as the Pac12N is?

I LOVE that model. And just by looking at the footprint, an ACC Network created, owned and operated by the league should be able to bring in about double what the Pac12N has. There's just that many more people in the footprint.

what are your thoughts? The Pac12N is already bringing in nearly $2million/school. And BTW, they are producing nearly twice as many games as the SEC or B1G. They have the option to cut many many costs if need be. Anyhow, I feel a similar ACC network would be worth nearly $4million. That's not bad coin.

And I feel that would also position the ACC much better in the future considering the cord cutting trend. The Pac12 will have the power to do as it pleases with distribution in the future. Unlike the B1G or SEC, over the top or Netflix arrangements will be an option. And they aren't gonna have to share the money with anyone.

Interesting proposition Cobb, my question to you is if Comcast buys Raycom, -- Stech 02/04/2016 12:16PM

I think that the ACC essentially has to enter into a joint venture -- CobbCountyHokie 02/04/2016 1:48PM

The Pac12 did it on their own. does the ACC not have enough money? -- chuckd4vt 02/04/2016 6:42PM

I doubt that the ACC has the money to make this work -- CobbCountyHokie 02/05/2016 10:07AM
