So this is the rumor flavor......

of the week? The Big Ten has been telling everyone who would listen they were getting a huge new contract for quite a while. Initial negotiations didn't get them the number so timeline was pushed back. Then USC/UCLA is trotted out with new timeline and a bigger number. Now this latest story. Starting to wonder if this is a case of overpromising and being unable to deliver.

Think so. $1.25B is $78 per school among 16 schools
hokieZ71 • 08/04/22 07:24 AM ET
The $100M is total payout, not just tv. **
Colonel Jessup • 08/04/22 02:22 PM ET
They aren’t getting the $1.6B deal they need for $100M/school

Big Ten - The “NFL of college football conferences.”
Old Line Hokie • 08/04/22 12:16 AM ET
They don't need to understand football fans
HokieAl • 08/04/22 08:51 AM ET
ND hasn't made a single move since 2012
TerryD • 08/04/22 08:40 AM ET
Notre Dame football has by far the biggest ego in college sports.
Old Line Hokie • 08/04/22 11:00 AM ET
That's not ego, it's just good business
HokieAl • 08/04/22 11:14 AM ET
Ego’s that idiot/crook Swofford destroying the BE then trying to steal PSU.
BBBDatVT_ • 08/04/22 04:03 PM ET
Notre Dame has their own network deal. No different than Texas....
Old Line Hokie • 08/04/22 02:05 PM ET
You'll have to accept some posters are just mad right now
hokieZ71 • 08/04/22 10:13 AM ET
I want things to stay exactly as they were in 2013
TerryD • 08/04/22 11:32 AM ET
I'm not mad or even upset. It's just football.
Old Line Hokie • 08/04/22 10:50 AM ET
Here's something that TV executives ignore...
ren_hoek • 08/04/22 07:20 AM ET
That is Clemson only, not the ACC
VaTechie • 08/04/22 09:18 AM ET
How has the SEC performed sans Alabama? **
133743Hokie • 08/05/22 04:15 PM ET
With Georgia......
2hhoop3 • 08/05/22 05:22 PM ET
agree, but the B1G only had OSU in the CFP until last year
ren_hoek • 08/04/22 12:14 PM ET
The ACC has been the second most successful CFP conference.
Truthahn • 08/04/22 02:25 PM ET
We need someone who can negotiate a contract. These crooks suck. **
BBBDatVT_ • 08/04/22 04:04 PM ET
MSU has also made it, but got hammered. I'd also say that aside from
reestuart • 08/04/22 12:50 PM ET
fair enough. If VT, Miami, and FSU get well, the perception will be better
ren_hoek • 08/04/22 02:03 PM ET
that would certainly help. I think the ACC's big issue is numbers, though.
reestuart • 08/04/22 05:56 PM ET
Couldn't the .....
2hhoop3 • 08/04/22 11:46 AM ET
tv ratings don't say that.
reestuart • 08/04/22 12:51 PM ET
Discussion.......
2hhoop3 • 08/04/22 05:51 PM ET
yeah, that's just Clemson, and they don't exactly kill it ratings-wise.**
reestuart • 08/04/22 09:38 AM ET
Clemson does just fine. They draw as many eyeballs as anyone. **
BBBDatVT_ • 08/04/22 04:06 PM ET
not really true. Like you say, they do fine, but they are a step below
reestuart • 08/04/22 05:57 PM ET
They haven't had a single regular season game in the top 15 from 2015-2019
reestuart • 08/04/22 06:16 PM ET
They’re not paying by the win, paying by the viewer.
BBBDatVT_ • 08/04/22 08:56 AM ET
just goes to show you that number of fans is more important than anything
reestuart • 08/04/22 09:42 AM ET
They get pretty decent numbers actually.
hokieZ71 • 08/04/22 10:34 AM ET
Millions away? Very doubtful **
VaTechHokiesACC • 08/04/22 03:34 AM ET
yeah, people aren't going to stop watching as long as it's on TV.
reestuart • 08/04/22 11:24 AM ET
It is a bit of a train wreck. But what to do?
