Clearly, ACC leadership didn't. fSU forced them to take a


And they also desired cuse and BC over an already powerful VT football program. Anyhow, this league has some valuable football properties, though it should have WVU in the fold too. But the commissioner negotiated a horribly long DEaL when those properties were at competitive lows. And to make things worse, the ACC has had to add and semi add schools to further extend tHat already lackluster contract. The Pac12 signed a much better top tier deal only months after the ACC, and they did not lump in potential network programming. That is inexcusable. At the time, the Pac12 was USC and 9 dwarfs. The ACC still had known football powers such as FSU, Clemson, Miami and vt in addition to absolutely better basketball in a much larger population footprint. Swafford should have been shown the door the day after that deal was announced. The ACC became second tier in that day.
