Let’s say we add Kansas. The ACC WOULD THEN HAVE 11 of the past 22 basketball national championships. We currently have 9. Let’s say we also added UConn plus others. The ACC would then have 14 of the past 22 basketball national champions. This is really the only way for the ACC to be able to negotiate a better tv deal. Because there is no way to improve the football product from new teams. But basketball can become even more valuable with expanding.
