Big brand school in conference. They didn't want to invest in ACCNetwork without knowing main teams would remain in conference . This is why they're not worried about us going to BIG right now, they know they (espn) hold the key to teams getting out of media right portion of this contract.
ESPN has total control......like any business, leverage is key.
That the ACC is even considering Stanford, CAL and SMU tells me how tight the GOR must be, as this is insane. ESPN has us by the b@lls and dangling peanuts at us. My hope was that ESPN with its financial issues may look to unload stuff but looking more likely they are loving all this content for a cheap price
My goodness I have never wanted to be more wrong about something!!
