Right About ESPN Deciding ACC Fate
It has taken at least at decade between the SEC expansions. Probably no changes coming to alter that schedule.
The PAC is gone. The B1G & Big 12 members are voting tonight respectively to accept Oregon, Washington, Arizona State & Utah. Arizona was accepted by Big 12 members already yesterday. They say the PAC front office will make one last telephone appeal tomorrow morning to PAC members to save the PAC.
ESPN & Big Media precipitated the fall of the PAC like a lit match causes a forest fire. By dealing out that $32 MM a year media deal with pay adjustments for new members to the Big 12. While denying the PAC everything but unproven technological Apple Streaming. That was orchestrated by Big Media about like everything else these days. Good luck with the windows on that present ACC media deal. ESPN will be broke and that message will be repeated all across the internet. The ACC is on life support with that GOR and even that highly benefits ESPN.
