[QUOTE="Techster, post: 1007274, member: 360"] I think you assume that ESPN: 1. Hasn't worked out an agreement with other schools they want in their collegiate portfolio. 2. ESPN even cares that the B1G might poach certain schools. The ACC doesn't have to agree, because ESPN holds all the leverage in the scenario the twitter poster is discussing. It's actually true that ESPN does hold the overwhelmingly better hand versus the ACC. If the ACC doesn't agree to the proposal? OK, ESPN takes their money and cancels in 2027 and get the schools they want anyways while saving hundreds of millions per year NOT paying for schools they don't want, and the unattractive schools can go the way of the PAC 12. If ACC does agree, they will at least be viable until 2036. Networks just want content, and inventory across the four time zones. If ESPN dismantles the ACC, they'll still have content and inventory spread across all 4 time zones between the SEC and Big 12 media deals. [/QUOTE]
