c= number of acc wins in the final four and championship game (these do not add units)
It is easier to just count the games played.

You guys have confused me. Say the ACC gets 20 appearances this year, we already have 12 and are guaranteed 5 more, right now. The ACC will get $280K for each appearance, for a total pot of $5.6M and we get 1/15th of this or $375K.
This does not sound like a lot of money, but from the write-up, I believe we get this amount every year for the next 6 years. If so, the total payout is about $2.2M over 6 years.

The figure I saw for this season is $280,300 per unit per year. They pay for 6 years. So each unit (game played, excluding the championship game) is $1.682M over its 6 year lifespan. This is divided by 15 teams in the ACC.
So each unit is worth $112,133 per year per team for 6 years to each ACC team. Multiply that by whatever you wish, or wait until the final four is decided and count.

I love Swarm pi$$ing contests. It's better than the writing in Playboy magazine.

Wow I’m having trouble communicating today. Translation: Notre Dame get a share of the ACC’s portion of the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament revenue just like all the other ACC teams.

Hence the 15 in all of the posts. Is anyone so out of touch to think ND doesn't play basketball in the ACC? I'd say I can't believe that but with our fans I'd believe pretty much anything.

To summarize:
1) If Duke or UNC "appear" in the Elite 8, then GT will have earned an additional $120k or so.
2) Since units are calculated by appearances, and not winning, feel free to hope Duke and UNC appear in the Elite 8 without cheering for them to win in the Sweet 16.
