Stech, I respect you man but this looks terrible for the ACC

You gotta give us something more to go on that. The B1G money means one conference is going to die. Just too much money on the table to walk away from. There will be increases for additional teams built in and as we know the networks work out those numbers based on specific teams they want. With tv money set the B1G will be looking to cash in on the BTN and which states will help the most? OK, KS or VA, NC? The ACC needs a network and expansion right now or we will be the new Big East.

So, what do you know about current positioning of the ACC? Again, much respect for you, just want a little more info. VT will be fine, I'm just not sure it will be in the ACC.

The Gap might be 10-20%. It sure ain't double. ** -- HOO86 04/20/2016 08:26AM

Even 10% is a pretty big gap when the pie is divided 5 ways ** -- Tailgate Guru 04/20/2016 09:31AM

Blasphemy ** -- FlyFishingHokie 04/20/2016 07:32AM

I agree...there will be plenty of smiles when the deal is done. ** -- Stech 04/20/2016 12:32PM

What? Maybe ESPN has no money to spend. And- -- KnoxHokie 04/19/2016 11:23PM

ESPN has money to spend. They didn't on this deal. ** -- HOO86 04/20/2016 12:23AM

All due respect, the SEC and B1G are not just regional -- Tailgate Guru 04/20/2016 12:09AM

Which is why the recent ratings figures are important. The networks know -- daveinop 04/20/2016 08:30AM

They do pull numbers in other areas, but not enough in the networks eyes to -- Stech 04/20/2016 07:45AM

Would also put NW in the "irrevelant" category too. -- EDGEMAN 04/20/2016 08:58AM

I agree with you that the NW of old is in the "irrelevant" category. -- VTHokie2000 04/20/2016 9:16PM

I don't think there is any question about that. Now maybe they can. ** -- HOO86 04/19/2016 8:19PM
