[QUOTE="Technut1990, post: 814214, member: 3774"] In business, volume of sales comes before you can sell quality of product. Sure you will argue that your product is top notch but in reality volume creates the means of investment which can make your product elite. It’s the difference between molded plastic and real mahogany. You can charge base prices and sell faux products or produce real products and charge higher prices. In other words The ACC better get into volume if it wants to generate the money to put a real product out there. To repeat myself, volume in this case appears to be alumni And gate revenue. You have to increase the alumni to improve the revenue, improved revenue creates improved product, improved product creates bigger demand, bigger demand creates bigger TV revenue. You increase alumni by bringing on the bigger schools/fan bases. If teams that are in the bigger TV markets are committed elsewhere then fan base is the next untapped source. Schools like UCF and yes WV, increase revenue via increasing fan base Simply by being bigger. by comparison, WV total enrollment looks to be about 26,000 while Duke is around 16,000. Strictly from an alumni perspective Ga. Southern, App St and Georgia State produce more alumni than Duke or Wake Forest. By comparison Texas has around 42,000 each year. I’m saying all this from a sports fiancé perspective. If your response is that Duke is a higher educational school or something along the lines of ‘only academic elites get into Duke‘ then you are having an education conversation not an athletic or conference sports competition conversation. Even if every one alum at every school in the country only created $ 1 annually The ACC is by virtue of their own tactics, anything but elite in the sports arena, that’s the biggest problem in the lagging financial outlook and it’s why they can’t generate TV value. Like the judge ruled, The Men’s soccer pays more because it generates more. [/QUOTE]
