The reason the on campus production facilities are built is to reduce cost.


When you have the onsite production facilities (control room, studio, etc.), ESPN doesn't have to bring their trucks and associated crews. The University can employ students to do a lot of the work for these, and it will cost ESPN a lot less money to produce games at the school.

Listening to the recording for the ESPN Tallahassee radio show where they talked about FSU building a second one, they want to be able to produce 2 events at the same time (basketball and baseball for instance). It makes it possible for ESPN3 to do it or for an ACCN. It's smart.
