You cannot think abstractly, lets address mathing.

Yes, the ACCN is currently outperforming the Pac12 Network, but the Pac12 network was up and running years before Swofford could get things together for an ACCN. And that network has been costly. And that conference payout for the Pac12 is misleading because of Covid. They got hit incredibly hard in 20 and 21 because they were playing far less games. That's not a fair comparison. But for the last decade, excluding Covid years, the Pac12 have been distributing more than the ACC. The Big12 too. That tells ya all ya need to know about how this league's been run. I used to live in SoCal, hardly anybody cares about college athletics out there. Yet, those schools were bringing in more TV and bowl money than the ACC? Crazy. And that will be the legacy because both those leagues are about to be gone, at least as we know them.

Big12 may be open for business, but they became a discount store last fall**

San Diego State and UNLV?
Old Line Hokie • 07/29/22 06:59 PM ET
They have a network, so new states.
HOO86 • 07/29/22 10:06 PM ET
There are 2 potential things that UNLV has going for it.
VTHokie2000 • 07/29/22 09:39 PM ET

I agree
VT Pops • 07/29/22 06:02 PM ET
The Pac-X will be able to do nothing long term unless B1G gives
Maroon Baboon • 07/29/22 06:48 PM ET
True, but Mike Tranghese still has him beat.
HOO86 • 07/29/22 04:57 PM ET
Nobody and I mean nobody has been worse than Swofford.

GOR was a master stroke given current times. It brought sanity to things**
133743Hokie • 07/29/22 09:16 PM ET

2hhoop3 • 07/30/22 07:44 AM ET

HokieAl • 07/30/22 09:06 AM ET
Facts are that the ACC went from first to nearly worst.
BBBDatVT • 07/30/22 10:12 AM ET

Yes lame and empty......
2hhoop3 • 07/30/22 11:27 AM ET
To date, the Pac12 Network has earned far more than the ACCN.
BBBDatVT • 07/30/22 01:21 PM ET
Depends on....

2hhoop3 • 07/31/22 05:04 PM ET
There were huge start up costs involved in the ACCN too. **
BBBDatVT_ • 07/31/22 08:18 PM ET
You're right.....
2hhoop3 • 08/01/22 11:43 AM ET
If the goal is to keep the conference together, Swofford did good.
BBBDatVT • 07/30/22 08:36 AM ET
If it's true, I think it is bad business by the B1G to string schools along
Maroon Baboon • 07/29/22 05:27 PM ET
It's the classic "no press is bad press"
HokieAl • 07/29/22 05:43 PM ET
Damn. That is some good reading. Clearly no love there
HokieAl • 07/29/22 04:29 PM ET
The PAC is a much better brand
Vippie1 • 07/29/22 05:19 PM ET
I could see 2 to 6 of the B12 going to the PAC
Truthahn • 07/31/22 09:31 PM ET
Was and is still, but will not be
