ACC Discussion

[travgt01]

I think what you meant to say was, "Congrats to GT for getting another payout from an ACC-won tournament game! Yay!"

Don't get a payout from the title game. There was no reason to root for unc last night unless you really just like saying ACC,ACC,ACC

My UNC friends think a lot of wins and some number of years probation are just ahead. They wish it come sooner or never.

 

[jacketup]

Can they go on probation now or are they going to be good again next year?

There were no unidentified street agents involved, so they did nothing wrong.

There was no lack of institutional control--UNC knew what was going on and they were in full control.

What's the problem?

I'm predicting that Roy will now self-impose a 6-month probation on his team, to head off the NCAA investigation...

You mean until time for practice to start?

Exactly, a Coach K approved "indefinite" suspension of the program.

Not ACC but this is huge for both Wichita State and the AAC. Gives this conference about 5-6 tourney teams a year.

The mocking of UNC continues...

Maybe. If there are enough conference wins to go around

Breaking: Two Candidates Emerging as Top Targets for BC AD Job

Top 2 per the article are the Memphis AD (who hired Tubby) and the Seton Hall AD.

Neither give me any hope for BC football

 

[RamblinRed]

Most Memphis fans (at least the basketball ones) would be glad for their AD to leave right now

Please let it be the MEM guy. Always root for chaos, CuseJ.

Hey now...

 

[mstranahan]

empty words from the toddlers in Raleigh. The exit fee alone would stop them from actually doing this. Add to that the very long and protracted legal battle that would ensue.
I think the NC legislature could save everyone time and energy if they just agreed to stop passing bills that cause most corporate entities to attempt to leave the state

What is the fee?

 

[AE 87]

A better move would be, would've been, to hold them out of postseason play. ACC would've been out some coin if UNC hadn't played in ACC or NCAA tourneys

 

[RamblinRed]

$50MM exit fee plus GOR (means ACC would own your media rights - ie you get no TV money) until the end of the current ACC contract - which is sometime in the 2030's.

About as empty a threat as you could make as the schools would lose so much money.

Of course they'd never do that either as it'd be a self-imposed near-death penalty. I heard a couple UNC guys whining after their title that poor ol' Roy is doing it all w/o a team full o' one-and-doners since the possible sanctions are making recruiting soooo hard for him. Cry me a river, heels.

The fee is actually 3 times the operating budget per team, which is over $60M.
