Big12 guy • 08/22/24 10:41 AM ET
That’s a very interesting theory, and the kind of well thought out option👏
Stech • 08/21/24 02:00 PM ET
Ill even give you some circumstantial proofs
hokieninsurance • 08/21/24 08:14 PM ET
Agree. This is a very interesting take on what may be happening behind
RJHokie • 08/21/24 04:19 PM ET
What value would there be refuting them or agreeing to an extension now?
Vienna_Hokie • 08/21/24 10:05 AM ET
Small nit to pick. UNC is the most valuable property in the ACC.**

I don’t expect them to discuss any details, but just not saying we have a

Why should they? What happens with FSU and Clemson and maybe
VTCALS72 • 08/21/24 07:30 AM ET
Because discussions and negotiations always take place in private.
wwhokie1 • 08/20/24 11:19 PM ET
But is it a negotiation? I thought ESPN was just deciding whether to pick
HokieNoVA • 08/21/24 09:44 AM ET
Phillips announced during media days that he was in negotiations with ESPN.**

I was negotiating yesterday and today, with no details, but I let people

Jim Phillips has made the kind of statements you reference**
wwhokie1 • 08/21/24 02:13 PM ET
Okay I remember one, but one and done is not going to cut it.**
