Espn also doesn’t “have to” air more acc games if losing big10

They can simply add more nba to those slots since it is the de facto nba network

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

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
cvillehokie92 • 08/19/22 11:10 AM ET
They have gone national. West coast is fertile ground.**
