Should be realistic to get market value based on a combination of

ratings and total viewership in comparison to the B1G. If an ACC game gets 70% (I have no idea) of the viewership the B1G gets, then that would be .7 times the per game payout to the B1G times the number of games broadcast times 1+ % inflation.

Then split the profits of the ACCN with ESPN.

Total WAG but maybe something like that?

I don't think the value of the current contract figures in.

This situation is what the "look in" is designed to address. -- HOO86 06/21/2016 8:57PM

Do you think it is realistic for the deal to double during a look-in? -- Colonel Jessup 06/21/2016 4:50PM
