Get a marginal $ increase, acquire schools with low tv ratings, and gain conference “security.” On the last part it does from the respect of acquiring votes from the schools who have no other options and will preserve the ACC at all costs. What is good for the ACC is no longer good for many of the member schools. Getting bigger to survive is simpleton thinking. Even with B12’s moves a smaller Pac could have survived if they weren’t shooting for $50M per school. This is “fan talk” but the VT admin’s approach/vote here looks poor. Our pool of schools in the “Fan 4-Pack” (cheap tickets for games against undesireable opponents) will certainly expand with this move.
