Very Helpful. Thanks. One question

It seems like many of your arguments relate to the ACCN as a national network. If we focused on just the ACC footprint, which contains 100M people, would that change the math?

Why don't we have it? B/c ESPN doesn't think it will make $ -- Colonel Jessup 03/04/2016 12:30PM

If the Pac12 has a network, the ACC should too. PERIOD. -- chuckd4vt 03/05/2016 12:38AM

And BTW, the University of Texas has its own network, and it's profitable. ** -- chuckd4vt 03/05/2016 12:39AM

I believe profitable for Texas but dreadful for ESPN who cuts the checks ** -- jesuisvtguy 03/05/2016 9:28PM

Nope. That changed starting this year. -- chuckd4vt 03/06/2016 12:16AM

Projected by who? ESPN? -- VictoryTurkey 03/06/2016 08:39AM

NOPE. Most recent reports say it'll make money in yr. 6. -- chuckd4vt 03/06/2016 09:26AM

The Dodd article above says no. -- daveinop 03/08/2016 5:51PM

So it's still not profitable, they just think that it will turn around? ** -- HokieDevil 03/06/2016 8:52PM

No. They have already lined up the distribution for it to be profitable. -- chuckd4vt 03/06/2016 9:05PM

Have you seen anything on when they will switch from -- daveinop 03/07/2016 09:03AM

No. Just read articles posted here. LHN's on TWC, Dish, and DirectTV now. ** -- chuckd4vt 03/07/2016 11:38AM

Which confuses me even further.... -- VT ChemE 1986 03/04/2016 1:12PM

Maybe not what you are looking for but here are 8 reasons -- Colonel Jessup 03/04/2016 2:05PM

I disagree with you. -- CobbCountyHokie 03/05/2016 09:23AM

So Cobb, you may have said elsewhere... but what do you see happening here? -- mwke 03/08/2016 08:23AM

So basically, the conference networks are failures -- VT ChemE 1986 03/04/2016 3:25PM
