[QUOTE="CEB, post: 883414, member: 4905"] Just a hypothetical... The ACC has 15 teams. ND deal is weird so let’s just throw them out. ACC has 14 full members making $36M / year and we are wanting to get another $20M / year to close the gap with BIGSECY teams. $20M x14 = $280M / year to get the rest of the conference to $56M. THEN, the four teams coming in want the same payout... another $224M. Big round number, those four teams have to be worth $125M each annually to move the needle like that. Similar math for BIG... assume each school gets a $20M bump, that’s $280M. They’re already making $50M plus each and UCLA and USC will want that $70M too... that’s $420M total. UCLA and USC are worth $220M a piece, annually?!? I don’t do anything media related nor do I claim to know a thing about subscriber fees and ad revenues but I just can’t believe current contracts are that undervalued! If the numbers are moving that fast, the ACC ought to be able to threaten to blow it up and get more money without adding or subtracting anyone. They also should get a renegotiation of the term... no one should be agreeing to more than a five year deal, right? BIG may renegotiate twice before our GOR runs out! [/QUOTE]
