Lifetime

It has National coverage, this is a very good thing,

I am not saying it's going to happen, but CW could handle an ACC PAC merger. Right now at a minimum, it is great for recruiting to get exposure in those areas that we have had little to no exposure. For instance if you are a hot shot Girls Softball recruit that wants to go to college in the East, seeing the Hokies or other ACC teams play, helps put them top of mind. Anybody in marketing, sales or recruiting knows this is a valuable thing. ** Edited by Stech at 7/14/2023, 12:08:06 PM

LIV golf will force a couple to Saturday evening, I think.

Imagine the travel costs of non-revenue sports traveling cross-country

Likely ESPN will make that call since they own the first 3-4 choices.**
Stech 07/15/23 04:28 AM ET
Very interesting ..

First thing that hit me when I saw it. Think like an Owner or CEO, where's
Stech 07/14/23 01:15 PM ET
They need programming
mrcaniac 07/14/23 04:27 PM ET
They do, seems interesting they announce the ACC before anything w/ the PAC
Stech 07/15/23 04:32 AM ET
This is probably the easiest package in sports to sell
mrcaniac 07/15/23 10:07 PM ET

CW is the merger of WB Network and UPN
HOO86 07/15/23 07:29 PM ET
Excuse me managing a huge network different than one little show
Mercury 07/14/23 08:13 AM ET
Can’t be a ton of money. They would have announced if so.**
hokieZ71 07/13/23 10:22 PM ET
Isn't it the same $ since ESPN sold those games to Raycom?
Victor Tango 07/14/23 09:13 AM ET
I'd imagine it's a bit more.
hokieZ71 07/14/23 09:17 AM ET
money aside, this puts games back on locally where RSN in many cases didn't
anotherdamnyankeehokie 07/14/23 08:34 AM ET
I agree. The Raycom/Bally deal was crappy. Blacked out 3-4 times in 2022
hokieZ71 07/14/23 09:09 AM ET
I got tired of feeling like I was watching
Hokie12thman 07/14/23 10:01 AM ET
Raycom is going to produce the games for the CW**

CW is national.....
2hhoop3 07/13/23 09:08 PM ET
Will every CW affiliate nationwide show those ACC games?
Old Line Hokie 07/13/23 11:50 PM ET
Was hinting that "if" there were a ACC PAC merger, CW could cover it in PAC
