Yep. ND football contractually doesn't have to join the ACC
I am pretty confident the ACC Network will start up on time and will make money, in time.
I do not know how much, nor do I really care that much. They ain't sending any of that money to me.
It will not make as much as the BTN or the SEC Network, most likely, but may do fairly well in time.
It is better than no network at all. Ask the Big 12.
ESPN has picked which horse it wants to back despite cord cutting. It is the ACC and not the Big 12.
That pretty much is the end of the story.
ESPN's commitment to the ACC Network led to the ACC GOR extension until 2036 and will keep the ACC together.
That GOR extension and ND's full ACC Network revenue share contractually ensures that ND football will not join the ACC, unless and until the playoffs are P4 conference champs only. [Post edited by TerryD at 05/06/2017 7:08PM]
