Are they going to add schools now? Why would they?


And I'm just not sure this ACC Network will provide more than a few million dollars per school. In fact, I believe ESPN will likely just pay them out that $3 million per school ($45 million) and place a handful more games each year on its already existing network. Anyone paying attention will realize it's not a real network. That's what Wes Durham indicated.

And don't forget that many of the Big12 schools are already bringing in decent money from their own individual TV networks/media deals. I bet schools like WVU are bringing in a few million dollars from that sort of thing each season.

So is the Big12 still considering expansion? And even if they do, that whole thing about them already being paid for 12 members is ridiculous. If they add quality members, they'll get a bump in TV and bowl revenue. If I were them, I would add Boise and BYU for football only (IF NEEDED FOR A NETWORK OR CHAMP. GAME). Bingo-Bango and you're good,
