Just saying - Clemsons attorneys might want to bring this up

ESPN is set to offer the WNBA a 2 BILLION (with a B) TV package.

The total package the ACC signed was 1.86 Billion till 2036

At what point does that not have to be a point of contention. Clemson football viewership alone dwarfs the entire WNBA.

This should 100 percent be a talking point in regards to the current suit.

Basically, ESPN is penalizing the schools they have a contract with in order to manage the entire market

Thats not even remotely legal

Just sayin.

You are welcome Clemson attorneys

2036 is still hard to believe. What the heck were these guys smoking when the ACC’s admin brought this deal up for discussion.

Read the history of the deal...all the schools were slobbering over it...our president hailed it...don't just assume that the money changers are telling you the truth...in 10 years did anyone not cash the checks...a ship of fools guided by Captain Crunch!

Nothing that I know of that can be smoked to alter the mind would be intoxicating enough to cause anybody to be that dumb. So, it had to be something that's eatable or drinkable...

Basically gross incompetence displayed by the ACC administration. If the long range deal was such a smart move when Swofford did it, why didn't the other stupid conferences like the SEC and Big do the same thing?

Did not use an attorney. Any dumb a** would know to leave a trap door to get out of a contract if things went South.

Everyone had attorneys, boards, presidents, lot of folks with great business minds...even with lots of attorneys...everyone saw more money than they were making...multiple times...us too...it was back before we won natties and got the big head...before Dabos dream kicked in and everyone wanted to be like us...after a couple of above average seasons by anyone else's standards the feces has hit the air agitator, coots are breaking down our door and the magic in those hills was just Danny's pot farm...take another Prozac...it ain't over yet!

$1.86 billion for 12 years is an old deal that was signed back in 2010.

The ACC made over $481 million in the 2022-23 school year alone from their TV deal with ESPN, plus another $194 million from postseason football games and the NCAA.

That WNBA deal is $2.2 billion for 11 years, $200 million per year, so the ACC is already making significantly more from their TV deal than the new WNBA deal pays.
