[QUOTE="dmurdock, post: 242171, member: 381"] The grant of rights is the schools giving up their media rights to the conference, not the conference agreeing to a contracted amount with ESPN. It was initially done when there was a ton of poaching going on between the conferences. The grant of rights makes it financially unfeasible for an ACC team to leave the conference the way Maryland did. [INDENT][INDENT]The conference's grant of rights makes it financially untenable for a school to leave, guaranteeing in the 20 years of the deal that a school's media rights, including revenue, for all home games would remain with the ACC regardless of the school's affiliation.
