It sounds like the TV companies are required to divert more $$ to the Conf

Seems like contractual obligation. Which is great as long as that stays in force. In that case, I’d go get the states of Texas(x2), California(x2), Washington, Oregon, Arizona and, sure go grab Ohio with Cincinnati. And if it was me pulling the strings I’d bounce Wake Forest out for WVU.

Nebraska's AD makes it sound like more realignment is coming
goldendomer • 08/07/22 02:52 PM ET
I have a feeling we have a good chance being conference mates with WVU
OrlandoHokie • 08/07/22 06:37 PM ET
The Entirety of the Big XII an PAC 12 become available in the next 3 years.
HOO86 • 08/07/22 05:42 PM ET
Can't add teams that dilute the payout!, Why can't people understand this**
133743Hokie • 08/07/22 08:27 PM ET
Can't keep entire regions out and keep payouts. Why can't folks understand?
BBBDatVT_ • 08/08/22 12:29 AM ET
The entirety of the ACC wants into the B1G and/or SEC right now. **
BBBDatVT_ • 08/07/22 08:15 PM ET
Actually the entirety of the ACC wants SEC or B1X money
EDGEMAN • 08/08/22 11:35 AM ET
This**
133193Hokie • 08/07/22 09:52 PM ET
I get the travel argument
hokieZ71 • 08/07/22 06:03 PM ET
The PAC12 stuff looks good on paper.
HOO86 • 08/07/22 06:27 PM ET
Go 24 and add Baylor/Ok St/Kansas/TCU
hokieZ71 • 08/07/22 06:48 PM ET
Still shilling for WVU?**
marcbvtgm • 08/07/22 05:44 PM ET
And Cincinnati.
HOO86 • 08/07/22 05:49 PM ET
The second Fickell leaves IDK if Cincinnati is all that valuable.**
hokieZ71 • 08/07/22 06:10 PM ET
There are close to 12 million people in Ohio.
HOO86 • 08/07/22 06:23 PM ET
That’s a stretch to say Cinci puts the ACCN fully into Ohio
hokieZ71 • 08/07/22 06:42 PM ET
The ACC Network is fully into Ohio Now.
HOO86 • 08/07/22 06:54 PM ET
Most people do not understand that is why MD abd Rut were added to Big 10
LocalExperts • 08/07/22 08:28 PM ET
It was why the B1G added those 2. It's also why they are adding LA schools**
HOO86 • 08/08/22 10:00 AM ET
That was a decade ago. Md and Rut are in because of PSU. Common knowledge.
BBBDatVT_ • 08/08/22 12:03 AM ET
I know. I 'm surprised they don't understand it.
HOO86 • 08/07/22 09:21 PM ET
I'm surprised you think EVERY cable Co in OH will charge more cause of Cinn
BBBDatVT_ • 08/08/22 12:05 AM ET
It sounds like the TV companies are required to divert more $$ to the Conf ◄
hokieZ71 • 08/08/22 06:53 AM ET
So are you saying we already have 1/3 the value of adding Cincinnati
hokieZ71 • 08/07/22 07:11 PM ET
ACCN is in all states.
HOO86 • 08/07/22 07:40 PM ET
OK. Let's just add N. Texas, pay them $10 mil/yr, and make bank.
BBBDatVT_ • 08/08/22 12:08 AM ET
Virginia offers no value to SEC or Big10**
LocalExperts • 08/07/22 08:30 PM ET
Actually it is not......
2hhoop3 • 08/07/22 06:54 PM ET
I doubt Comcast, or whatever’s in Ohio, pays extra for Cincinnati.
BBBDatVT_ • 08/07/22 07:06 PM ET
Once again......
2hhoop3 • 08/07/22 07:27 PM ET
So, a league could add Radford and get carriage in Virginia?
BBBDatVT_ • 08/07/22 08:19 PM ET
Dude. Your personal attacks gotta stop. It’s troubling. **
BBBDatVT_ • 08/07/22 08:16 PM ET
The only thing......
2hhoop3 • 08/07/22 09:34 PM ET
Every cable company in Va would charge extra because a league added RU? **
BBBDatVT_ • 08/08/22 12:11 AM ET
Carriage.....
2hhoop3 • 08/08/22 10:39 AM ET
He said that “other conferences have GORs that are much farther out…
hokieZ71 • 08/07/22 05:07 PM ET
Plenty of other schools that could “find a way.”
BBBDatVT_ • 08/07/22 06:07 PM ET
Yeah
133743Hokie • 08/07/22 08:35 PM ET
It would just be extremely expensive.
HOO86 • 08/07/22 05:59 PM ET
Our football is not under the GOR. 130- 210 million is what I have
goldendomer • 08/07/22 07:09 PM ET
$120M exit fee. 2.5 games per year x 14 years equals 35 games. Say $2M per
133743Hokie • 08/07/22 08:39 PM ET
Again, our football games are not under the GOR. Not 2.5.
goldendomer • 08/07/22 08:44 PM ET
GOR no. But under contract are 5 per year.
HOO86 • 08/07/22 08:51 PM ET
Much cheaper than 500, 400,300 million. The max it would be 220
goldendomer • 08/07/22 08:56 PM ET
ND can get out. It's just expensive.
HOO86 • 08/07/22 09:07 PM ET
That's expensive IMO
HOO86 • 08/07/22 07:37 PM ET
For sure not cheap, just doable if the ND admin wanted to do so. I imagine
goldendomer • 08/07/22 07:47 PM ET
Status quo for both ND and the ACC is the best thing that could happen
133743Hokie • 08/07/22 08:42 PM ET
I kinda wish the ND band aid gets pulled by 2025
hokieZ71 • 08/07/22 07:14 PM ET
My guess is BIG gets new deal to get to 2030
HokieAl • 08/07/22 08:20 PM ET
Yep, I think that too.
hokieZ71 • 08/08/22 01:44 PM ET
It would be nice if it could all be done with by 2026.
hokieZ71 • 08/07/22 04:59 PM ET
I had no idea Trev Alberts was their AD but that seems to be their MO
