Can we agree that the ACC-ESPN deal specifics WERE and ARE being HIDDEN?
TDVick • 05/04/24 10:06 AM ET
so, sunshine UCF for a copy of the Big 12 deal; or try
daveinop • 05/05/24 08:03 AM ET
Why is it so hard to believe this was just same old, same old for ESPN?
VTCALS72 • 05/04/24 09:59 PM ET
That is the #1 piece of info I want.

Your last point. EXACTLY. I suspect the VT fans got a bunch of "sweep it

When all the smoke is cleared, no VT's lawyers did not go over the media

Let's say that everything.....
2hhoop3 • 05/04/24 04:28 PM ET
It's possible that there is no "glaring flaw" in the media contract. There

Yeah, that would make no sense **

Now I think you have it right

How does remaining quiet.......

You need to think a little deeper......

That is the key. Put a dollar figure next to each school in the ACC. The

Big12 guy • 05/04/24 08:03 PM ET
The four G5 newbies were paid $19 million each for '23 & '24 seasons.
33laszlo99 • 05/04/24 10:37 PM ET
It’s probably going to take a federal, as opposed to a state, lawsuit
RJHokie • 05/04/24 04:14 PM ET
I think they just wanted the ACC network
Millpoint • 05/04/24 02:28 PM ET
They looked and were willing to pay the price. It may end up like hiring
VTCALS72 • 05/05/24 07:36 AM ET
The easy play for The ACC would be to just outsource production to Raycom,
33laszlo99 • 05/05/24 12:58 PM ET
ESPN also had all of the ACC schools build broadcast facilities before...

VTCALS72 • 05/05/24 11:23 AM ET
Don't know why ESPN would even consider continuing the media deal

Don't know why ACC would even bother giving ESPN an extension in making the

VTCALS72 • 05/05/24 04:29 PM ET
If that's the case, why is everyone acting like they didn't know about it?
Maroon Baboon • 05/05/24 09:25 PM ET
First, That is like saying the public need to have spoon fed to them
VTCALS72 • 05/06/24 07:53 AM ET
When you say "most likely everybody had a copy of the (ACC/media contract)"
Maroon Baboon • 05/06/24 10:58 AM ET
Reread it, yes I see how you took that but try this
VTCALS72 • 05/06/24 01:38 PM ET
I couldn’t agree with you more. The revelation that ESPN could unilaterally

VTCALS72 • 05/05/24 04:23 PM ET
If there is no media rights agreement after 2027,
WBGV • 05/05/24 11:43 PM ET
So there is no CFP agreement past the first "look in" date?
VTCALS72 • 05/06/24 08:03 AM ET
Not referring to any look-in clause, but rather ESPN’s Unilateral Nine-Year
WBGV • 05/06/24 05:37 PM ET
It looks like, best case, the ACC has 3 football seasons left. If there

WarHog38 • 05/04/24 07:32 PM ET
Wait, you hope ESPN renegotiates for a lesser payout to the ACC after FSU &
UpstateSCHokie • 05/04/24 10:58 AM ET
No. But if the ACC is going to let the two top football dogs out, I'd
Maroon Baboon • 05/04/24 08:00 PM ET
Yea, it’s weird seeing VT fans rooting for the ACC’s death…
BROman Hokie • 05/04/24 04:00 PM ET
No we cannot agree......
2hhoop3 • 05/04/24 10:18 AM ET
I agree 100% that fear is a driving force in those lawsuits. **
Big12 guy • 05/04/24 10:21 AM ET
From VT’s perspective, the best deal is the one we currently have

That last sentence is relevant, unless VT too was mislead by the ACC and
Big12 guy • 05/04/24 12:06 PM ET
Yes. He also maintains an FSU channel.

Yes that Locked On Big 12 is also annoying. He constantly drools over Miami

Never seen him before,...but yes, he is annoying.**

Listen carefully, just backed down his earlier prediction of FSU & Clemson
