Nobody is leaving the AAC


The AAC's negotiating leverage is near non-existent. No P5 conference can improve its media revenue by expanding with a G5 school. No other G5 conference can attact an AAC school because they all earn less than the AAC. In that situation, what is the value of a GoR? Nobody has incentive to leave. ESPN might prefer that the AAC not have a GoR so that ESPN can assemble a new conference using AAC programs and orphans from the Big 12 in five years. Maybe that's Aresco's real concern.
The only way the AAC gets a real pay raise is if another network decides to bid against ESPN for the AAC rights.
