"Untenable why though? Hasn't the ACC always made less than the SEC and B1G and still won champs? Yes! And in all likelihood, if this was 2018 and the gap stayed around $15-20M, it'd be OK. But there are 2 bigger issues at play now..." "Dan Radakovich had a very important quote this week: "The gap is just not about the money. It's about schools being able to take those dollars and translate it into potentially NIL opportunities for student athletes." This isn't how NIL is supposed to work, but it's happening." "More importantly, the courts could soon erase the middle man & determine athletes are employees w/salaries from schools. That'd be the end for the ACC, which is why Phillips was in DC lobbying Congress to nix employee convo & halt future litigation. That's not likely though."
