You present info that I give you as if it is news to me.


The ACC will be last in the 2015-16 report. I already told you that.

But when that report comes out, no one will notice because the updated deals will be the news. No one cares what the SEC made in 2013, they care about what they are making now.

The Big 12 schools decided to monetize their Tier 3 rights individually. The ACC and other three P conferences decided to do it collectively. The ACC is the only one of the P5 that has yet to collect on that...and it is frustrating to all VT fans following along.

We will see if the ACC strategy was a good move or not when the outcome, whatever it is, is announced. But in my view, making future predictions without any regard for the baseline is, well, just nuts. That baseline won't be established until the ACC deal is announced.

I will also say that the Big 12 model you tout is a one way street. Yes, I know how much they make...I posted that as well...along with the LHN contract and the Big 12 Bylaws (have you read them?). With Texas cutting a deal that doesn't mesh with the timeline of the Big 12 GoR, the Big 12 is stuck with their Tier 3 model unless their next deal is with ESPN.

The Big 12 isn't on shaky ground because of geography, it is on shaky ground because of disparate earnings from joint ventures...its Tier 3 deal. If that wasn't true they wouldn't be talking about it.
