Disney Tells Politicians What to Do

Not the other way around in this country. I could give you a 1/2 dozen vivid examples but all would violate this board's rules. What politicians say means little. The fans could change the course of expansion. You are a Big-12 fan, I am an SEC fan. Are you upset because the Big-12 added Utah & Arizona? You think I am upset because the SEC added Texas & Oklahoma? I mean upset enough to forget college football and cancel cable subscriptions. I don't think many in the Big-12 & SEC are upset at all. The only people upset are Washington State & Oregon State fans. Just like if all my ACC predictions play out. The only fan bases really upset will be at BC, Wake, Duke, SMU, Cal & Syracuse. I think Big Media can easily live with that with what they gain from superior football match-up games. ESPN alone will decide who is right between the two of us. If ESPN resigns the ACC TV Contract through 2036. The ACC has a dozen years as your predictions allude to. If ESPN allows that ACC TV Contract to expire on June 30, 2027. My ACC predictions come into reality. It is that simple.

NC State might actually be #2 on that list.

NCSt has zero value to P2 unless UNC is handcuffed to them….
CrystalCoveHokie 07/20/24 06:49 PM ET
I strongly disagree with that
VTCALS72 07/21/24 06:14 PM ET
Why would either of the P2 take NCSt without UNC?……

got the power? yes they do. got the viewers in NC? not as much

UNC may be the top brand in the ACC. 2 major TV markets (RDU, CLT) and MBB.
Maroon Effect 07/20/24 02:52 PM ET
That's like saying Rutgers is the top brand of the BIG because they're in

I hate UNC with a passion but they've got the brand behind it **

Well, the big 10 did take Rutgers. And Duke is a bad example.
Maroon Effect 07/20/24 05:28 PM ET
Rutgers is glad they got the invite when they did, they wouldn't get it now
