ACC Tumbleweeds

It’s ironic that I am staying at the Grandover in Greensboro which is next to the former ACC offices. If you ever visited them in their prime you would have been very impressed with their grandeur. Now there is a huge for sale sign out front and weeds that have all but covered the Atlantic Coast Conference sign. I thought to myself this conference has truly abandoned their roots.

VT Pez4Life • 08/23/23 07:17 PM ET
Does that include additional ACC Network money?**

I just read through this article twice. It was not pleasant. I feel bad
33laszlo99 • 08/23/23 10:02 PM ET
I think goal is to stay visible/relevant until next
HokieDelNorte • 08/23/23 10:37 PM ET
72 / 14 = $5.1 per school. Minus $2 million in additional travel cost.

SMU is TCU on Steroids
Sunsetunderground • 08/23/23 09:27 PM ET
all the Southern Methodists will be tuning in**
Ho_Ki • 08/23/23 11:39 PM ET
SMU has a losing football record in the AAC since joining.
WBGV • 08/23/23 10:06 PM ET
You apparently have never heard of the ACC Wheel of Destiny 🤣.
Maroon Baboon • 08/23/23 10:19 PM ET
I stopped watching College Gameday because of that BS...lol**
EDGEMAN • 08/24/23 06:07 PM ET
That was eSECpn's original passive aggressive beatdown of the ACC to

Did you mean $teroils? 🤣**

Not Going to Be $72 Million
WarHog38 • 08/23/23 08:48 PM ET
That can’t be right
Marooned • 08/23/23 08:57 PM ET
Possible other things going on that we haven't heard...
HokiePail • 08/23/23 09:31 PM ET
Just Going By What the Article Stated
WarHog38 • 08/23/23 09:21 PM ET
I wouldn't take anyone's numbers to the bank
daveinop • 08/24/23 06:59 AM ET
72 million is not huge, go ahead and send it my way please. I said please🤣**
Stech • 08/23/23 07:56 PM ET
I have to think the selling point for FSU and CU is
Marooned • 08/23/23 07:46 PM ET
5 million more per team, not including extra travel costs.**
goldendomer • 08/23/23 07:23 PM ET
It's not $5 million per school. Cal and Stanford aren't taking 0 shares.
xx97 • 08/24/23 04:40 AM ET
The extra CA and TX ACCN subscribers revenue on top of that
HOO86 • 08/23/23 07:39 PM ET
I would think so. **
HokiePail • 08/23/23 09:39 PM ET
I've seen estimates of anywhere from 50 to 70 million subs for ACCN
4x4hokies • 08/23/23 07:59 PM ET
Hard for me to believe that SMU will eventually bring in enough for a full
SpeakToDamien • 08/23/23 08:49 PM ET
I don't disagree...maybe they become the next TCU by 2036**
4x4hokies • 08/23/23 08:55 PM ET
They win 7-8 games, they’ll be a top half TV draw in the ACC.**
hokieZ71 • 08/23/23 09:05 PM ET
But I do think Calford is a good move
SpeakToDamien • 08/23/23 08:59 PM ET
We'll see what that adds. But this is not a good look
goldendomer • 08/23/23 07:54 PM ET
I don't see them as leftovers.
HOO86 • 08/23/23 09:09 PM ET
Big doesn't want them, Big 12 really didn't want them
goldendomer • 08/23/23 09:12 PM ET
B1G did want Stanford from what I've read
HOO86 • 08/23/23 09:17 PM ET
They did not add value to the two best conferences. The big 12 saw them
goldendomer • 08/23/23 09:20 PM ET
Stanford has had good football. They should...
HokiePail • 08/23/23 09:38 PM ET
As long as they keep feeding PEDs to their players, they'll be solid.**
EDGEMAN • 08/24/23 05:28 AM ET
they certainly kicked our butt**
MrBayAreaHokie • 08/23/23 10:08 PM ET
That was embarrassing. **
HokiePail • 08/24/23 06:12 AM ET
I ‘think’ their coach highly
HOKIEGOBBLE • 08/24/23 09:21 AM ET
I was watching the game with a couple of guys...
HokiePail • 08/24/23 06:02 PM ET
Ridiculous Geography seems the norm these days
HOO86 • 08/23/23 09:29 PM ET
Not sure the ACC is finished. Those 2 may eventually be in. **
HokiePail • 08/23/23 09:42 PM ET
I am fine with as long as we stay the same. I think it is ridiculous
goldendomer • 08/23/23 09:33 PM ET
I know. You've never been high on Stanford.
