With great respect, you still have the numbers

with Oklahoma and Texas in that long post. Now, I just skimmed it, as dinner with my wife got in the way, and I'll try and decipher it more tomorrow, but just for the sake of argument - which is false, the ACC gets $10M more now than the B12 schools. UCF will still receive more than the bottom 1/2 of the ACC (maybe the same). Keep in mind that CalFord and SMU will not skew the numbers up indefinitely. Ya - the 2024 - 2025 numbers are the ones to compare, not the numbers of the B12's old contract.

MrFantastic! • 04/28/26 06:50 AM ET
Yes UNC is likely to leave.

You might be right. I just don't think they will be a "leader"

So, you think the B12 contract just expires then? I suppose
Big12 guy • 04/27/26 02:24 PM ET
The ACC didn't need to raid the B12
RandomAsianGuy • 04/27/26 05:39 PM ET
I don't know, even by your math, they are about $5M behind the current
Big12 guy • 04/27/26 06:15 PM ET
$5 million?

That's not my post.
RandomAsianGuy • 04/27/26 08:34 PM ET
The old contract was around $25M. The B12 actually

Yormark did well but that raise is basically an extension of old contract

Separating basketball rights will not be lucrative

Agreed. It may or may not bring in more money, but

That is why VT is ramping up immediately with funding

If no one leaves the ACC, you're probably correct.
wwhokie1 • 04/28/26 02:08 PM ET
IMO VT has a chance. Perhaps a slim chance but we have a shot.
