[QUOTE="RonJohn, post: 817703, member: 2426"] I don't know how the BTN contracts are set up, nor how the BTN charges for subscribers. Atlanta is the 7th largest TV market in the country. IF the BTN makes more money per subscriber in their home area, then GT would add significant revenue simply from the TV market. Fifteen years from now then the ACC contract expires, it is highly likely that the TV market won't matter as much, but for now it does. Also, it would get Big10 teams into Georgia for recruiting purposes. If GT were going to move to the Big10, it would have happened in the 2012-2014 time frame. With the buyout and the GOR, GT could not afford to leave the ACC even with an extra $20 million in revenue per year. EDIT: Even with extra money from the BTN, that would only at most add about half of the Big10 per team payout, so it wouldn't make immediate financial sense for the Big10 to add GT. [/QUOTE]
