I wasn't comparing the MWC contract to the

ACC. Clearly, there is a difference. My point was that if you lose the top 1/3 of your conference, the value changes. That includes the B12, as well as the SEC and BIG. If the top 1/2 of the BIG and SEC form their own conference, obviously, those that remain are not worth what they are currently getting.

The ACC is likely to lose some schools (up to 4 IMO) in 2030, but
RandomAsianGuy • 01/19/26 12:31 PM ET
Agree, P2 are now competing & not cooperating for them, but I think 8 is
Stech • 01/19/26 01:24 PM ET
Adding low profile schools only dilutes the brand.
RandomAsianGuy • 01/19/26 01:38 PM ET
I don’t think the top 8 in the ACC are low profile schools, I think the B1G
Stech • 01/19/26 02:01 PM ET
If the top 8 in the ACC is the P2 worthy, the ACC should have received
RandomAsianGuy • 01/20/26 12:12 PM ET
The top 8 including Miami are investing now, fortunately w/ NIL & Portal it

ACC is only "safe" through 2029. That's when we'll see the next shifts-
Baltimore_Hokie • 01/19/26 10:09 AM ET
That’s right by then the penalties are much smaller. **

You're opinion could be spot on, but as you
Big12 guy • 01/19/26 10:46 AM ET
The current B12 media contract pays $31.6M/school annually
SMU Pony • 01/19/26 02:55 PM ET
Agreed. I was surprised that they got that
Big12 guy • 01/19/26 03:12 PM ET
Well ESPN was offering the Pac-12 $30M per school
SMU Pony • 01/19/26 03:18 PM ET
We will see, but it is what it is. What I will find compelling
Big12 guy • 01/19/26 04:05 PM ET
You have YOUR opinion......
