I Think What Big Media Did to the PAC is an Exact Precedent For the ACC

That is my opinion as this board overflows with people's opinions. I don't know what that proves by using that singularly as a response. You could have addressed some of the many points I made in that previous response. I try to do that here. I know you are an ACC loyalist to the bone.However you need to analyze the ESPN failures to resign that ACC TV Contract since 2021.That should be sobering to anyone as you. Does Big Media stall around resigning TV Contracts with the B1G or SEC? Another clear precedent for you. I am not making phone calls or writing letters behind the scenes to ESPN bashing the ACC. Not a enemy of the ACC. I always enjoyed the few games the Razorbacks played with the ACC schools over the years. Had rather keep those games than forever lose them.

The next moves will center on FSU, and to a lesser extent, ND. At this
