[QUOTE="RonJohn, post: 953274, member: 2426"] There is a difference between "willing to" and "locked in to". Reportedly ESPN hasn't been "willing to" offer more money for broadcasting rights this year. I don't think anyone publicly knows what the details of the ESPN-ACC contract are. I have seen it reported that the contract can be renegotiated if the circumstances of the conference change significantly. I have no idea what the contract says about one team entering the conference. I think I have seen speculation that it would take multiple teams entering the conference to trigger a re-negotiation, but I don't know for sure. I think this is probably either a bad time or the right at the end of the good times to try to negotiate with ESPN. I seriously doubt that adding four teams from the Pac12 would significantly increase the media revenue per team for the ACC. I am certain that it would not get that revenue anywhere close to the Big10 nor SEC media revenue. [/QUOTE]
