Big 10 to 20?**
OU_Sooner • 08/19/22 10:53 AM ET
Why not 32?
HOO86 • 08/20/22 05:10 PM ET
Stopping at (20) is not good for VT. Especially if SEC stops at (20) as
133193Hokie • 08/20/22 09:59 AM ET
Espn also doesn’t “have to” air more acc games if losing big10
3TechFanz • 08/19/22 02:24 PM ET
But NBA doesn’t get into full swing until November
hokieZ71 • 08/19/22 06:05 PM ET
Yeah - does anybody watch NBA games in November?
VPI_1998 • 08/20/22 05:03 AM ET
well that is very specific. ACC window to act is closing quickly**
HokieAl • 08/19/22 12:10 PM ET
This is why the ACC needs to add while it can.
hokieZ71 • 08/19/22 11:50 AM ET
The B1G adds UCLA & USC...
Old Line Hokie • 08/19/22 04:01 PM ET
Yes keep the ACC in the Eastern time zone
hokieZ71 • 08/19/22 07:22 PM ET
If you are worried about Clemson and FSU leaving, I'm not sure adding
Maroon Baboon • 08/19/22 01:09 PM ET
I guess you didn't read that part correctly
hokieZ71 • 08/19/22 01:54 PM ET
At this point I'd boot WF and BC for WVU and Cin
Truthahn • 08/19/22 04:36 PM ET
Don't forget SYR - they are about to drop off the map in BBall and football
VPI_1998 • 08/20/22 05:26 AM ET
They likely already have 1 foot out the door anyways.**
VTHokie2000 • 08/19/22 01:14 PM ET
The ACC has no viable ways to act
Tailgate Guru • 08/19/22 12:50 PM ET
yep, no real answer
Vippie1 • 08/19/22 05:48 PM ET
Given what Kevin Warren said in a recent interview with Real Sports HBO,
VTHokie2000 • 08/19/22 06:06 PM ET
If Rutgers and Maryland can do it with B1G $$, so can Tech**
Tailgate Guru • 08/19/22 10:44 PM ET
If it is just for football, then yes VT could do it too.
VTHokie2000 • 08/20/22 08:24 AM ET
Is expanding still a good idea for the ACC if it means each school will
VTHokie2000 • 08/19/22 12:15 PM ET
Well clearly during discovery with ESPN that would come up
hokieZ71 • 08/19/22 12:29 PM ET
There may not be a scenario where the ACC can get to $45 million though
VTHokie2000 • 08/19/22 12:33 PM ET
ACCN money alone is going to get us close to $40M fairly soon.
hokieZ71 • 08/19/22 01:57 PM ET
If you can find the link, then I would be interested in reading the article
VTHokie2000 • 08/19/22 02:08 PM ET
Here you go
hokieZ71 • 08/19/22 02:27 PM ET
I think new money comes from new ACCN payments
Truthahn • 08/19/22 04:42 PM ET
Are you suggesting ESPN might say no additional money to the
Femoyer Hokie • 08/19/22 12:19 PM ET
I'm saying it could be either scenario. If ESPN doesn't believe these
VTHokie2000 • 08/19/22 12:31 PM ET
That's not how it would work. ACC would be adding inventory
HokieAl • 08/19/22 12:39 PM ET
The inventory only has "value" if ESPN uses it. Given that ESPN is in cost
VTHokie2000 • 08/19/22 12:47 PM ET
Is the ACCN something that matters though?
hokieZ71 • 08/19/22 07:30 PM ET
The third league may already exist though.
VTHokie2000 • 08/19/22 07:35 PM ET
I believe the ACCN generated almost $200M revenue in 2020-21
hokieZ71 • 08/19/22 08:23 PM ET
That's my point there isn't going to be a "third mythical power conference"
VTHokie2000 • 08/19/22 08:41 PM ET
No I don't see that happening
hokieZ71 • 08/19/22 09:23 PM ET
The 12-team playoffs only happens if the Big Ten and SEC remain in the NCAA
VTHokie2000 • 08/19/22 09:30 PM ET
Possible.
hokieZ71 • 08/19/22 09:42 PM ET
It is possible and maybe even likely for a couple reasons. First, as I
VTHokie2000 • 08/19/22 09:58 PM ET
It all depends on Notre Dame
Millpoint • 08/19/22 11:43 AM ET
SEC will get those ACC schools
Truthahn • 08/19/22 04:31 PM ET
But the GOR is blocking all that.
hokieZ71 • 08/19/22 05:58 PM ET
I just don’t see 24 working.
hokieZ71 • 08/19/22 11:53 AM ET
If the P2 grows, then the payouts for the leftovers gets reduced
HokieAl • 08/19/22 12:09 PM ET
I don't like 24 either**
Millpoint • 08/19/22 12:06 PM ET
It will be an AFC-NFC concept with two conferences. TV rights like nfl now
3TechFanz • 08/19/22 11:13 AM ET
Here is what i don't get with this "NFL Concept"
gman86 • 08/19/22 11:41 AM ET
Some of the weaker programs in the SEC and Big10
mancunian • 08/19/22 02:26 PM ET
That's probably why there will be a third "power" league
hokieZ71 • 08/19/22 02:04 PM ET
There is always the possibility this could evolve into becoming a minor
VTHokie2000 • 08/19/22 12:22 PM ET
Nah, that loses its consumer base
hokieZ71 • 08/19/22 02:12 PM ET
The reason I said that is because the Kevin Warren is on the record
VTHokie2000 • 08/19/22 02:33 PM ET
Was listening to Full Ride
