Too late - TV money

The best thing the ACC could have done to keep the conference together would have been to renegotiate a new TV contract. Unfortunately, they signed an ESPN contract in 2016 that was supposed to run for 20 years and ESPN is not interested in paying more now. It's a big reason ESPN has not yet extended the contract yet past 2026. With that known, the ACC should have been shopping networks for any type of new deal. I believe they have to a degree but no network is biting. The only way to make ACC teams like FSU and Clemson get the money the P2 is offering is through another TV deal. Otherwise, everyone in the ACC is about to fall $30-$40 million behind the P2 annually. There is no fix at this point.

Pay based on merit is always a good idea. But might not be enough for FSU.

Are those just proposals? What would it take for the top teams of the ACC
