The basketball one feels dirty. ** -- Maroon Baboon 04/04/2017 3:33PM
Hope that will be reflected in our ESPN Television deal! ** -- EDGEMAN 04/04/2017 12:50PM
2 of last 3 basketball, 2 of last 4 football, 2 of last 4 Heisman,5 schools -- HOO86 04/04/2017 11:31AM
Maybe one day Tech will give the ACC a team national championship. -- Old Line Hokie 04/04/2017 10:37AM
Think the days of Nova and Gonz making runs are numbered. -- chuckd4vt 04/04/2017 11:38AM
Villanova and Gonzaga get a small fraction of tv revenue -- Colonel Jessup 04/04/2017 2:37PM
Are Gonzaga and Nova paying players now too? Not sure. ** -- chuckd4vt 04/04/2017 2:40PM
Don't know. Yes, that will certainly hurt if not ** -- Colonel Jessup 04/04/2017 2:44PM
Are schools allowed to pick and choose which sports they want -- VTHokie2000 04/04/2017 3:31PM
I wouldn't think so. -- chuckd4vt 04/04/2017 7:37PM
Yes, I believe so.. ** -- RJHokie 04/04/2017 6:36PM
Small schools can still make deep basketball runs in the tourney -- EDGEMAN 04/04/2017 2:13PM
I think there are still too many unknown variables to make a decision now -- VTHokie2000 04/04/2017 1:06PM
To your title line sentiment- can I add an Amen! ** -- Vippie1 04/04/2017 11:34AM
I take no pleasure in unc's success. -- mancunian 04/04/2017 09:47AM
So then why do Clemson and UNC bring in less money than the Gamecocks? -- chuckd4vt 04/04/2017 02:45AM
If Tech was in the SEC, how much additional money would have been earned? ** -- AlumVT 04/04/2017 2:28PM
Think we're looking at an instant $20-$25 million. -- chuckd4vt 04/05/2017 11:24AM
Minus the exit fee (there is no free lunch) ** -- daveinop 04/06/2017 10:44AM
Um, like Maryland, it will ALL be gravy within 5 years. ** -- chuckd4vt 04/06/2017 11:19AM
LOL, the success of the ACC is just tearing you up. The ACC won two NC's in -- Stech 04/04/2017 07:40AM
Even though the ACC was a dreadful football conference when -- VTHokie2000 04/04/2017 1:31PM
Imagine that. A leader casting a vision. Who knew? -- chuckd4vt 04/04/2017 2:01PM
Even though I am tired of all the coverage the SEC has gotten -- VTHokie2000 04/04/2017 2:20PM
Dang straight. Whatabout things the B1G, Pac12, Texas, ND, etc. have done? -- chuckd4vt 04/04/2017 3:14PM
You are right they have had vision when it comes to some things. -- VTHokie2000 04/05/2017 11:25AM
So, pretty much everybody EXCEPT the ACC? -- chuckd4vt 04/05/2017 11:32AM
I wouldn't go that far because the Big XII may have less vision -- VTHokie2000 04/05/2017 11:34AM
I think Big12 works GREAT for some of its schools. -- chuckd4vt 04/05/2017 11:43AM
You are right that the Big XII is paying its more than the ACC. -- VTHokie2000 04/05/2017 12:04PM
Good point Chuck. As it is today, Tech's revenue is higher than Vandy's -- Calamitous 04/04/2017 07:15AM
Maryland and WVU make quite a bit more money than VT. -- chuckd4vt 04/04/2017 10:07AM
Will they win? ** -- daveinop 04/04/2017 11:13AM
No. That means even a bad B1G program earns more than VT. ** -- lawhokie 04/08/2017 09:52AM
BOTH just had great fball/bball years. -- chuckd4vt 04/04/2017 11:30AM
So, 6-7 (3-6 in conf) = "solid year" ** -- daveinop 04/04/2017 12:26PM
As solid as they were doin in the ACC. -- chuckd4vt 04/04/2017 12:28PM
Then why would WV want in the ACC? ** -- Maroon Doom 04/04/2017 10:21AM
Because the Big12 isn't all that stable right now. -- chuckd4vt 04/04/2017 11:17AM
No way ESPN was going to do the ACC Channel before the SEC...I still can't -- Stech 04/04/2017 07:51AM
They gave University of Texas their own channel. -- chuckd4vt 04/04/2017 10:02AM
In the next decade or so do you see the ACC catching up or... -- AlumVT 04/04/2017 08:42AM
Straight answer? No. But the ACC is going to survive... -- Calamitous 04/04/2017 11:16PM
Yep. We're just now beginning to really feel the pain. -- chuckd4vt 04/05/2017 11:39AM
I worry that the ESPN bubble is going to burst and... -- Chicago Maroon 04/04/2017 11:33AM
Not that simple..... -- 2hhoop3 04/04/2017 10:18AM
By most optimistic estimates, ACC Us will be $5-$10 m. behind the B1G. -- chuckd4vt 04/04/2017 10:11AM
Until the ACC can match viewer ratings w/ the B1G & SEC, it will lag behind ** -- daveinop 04/04/2017 10:28AM
That chart you linked weeks ago did not prove that. -- chuckd4vt 04/04/2017 11:45AM
I linked ALL of the data. Use your calculator and make your case. ** -- daveinop 04/05/2017 11:23AM
You will always spin anything to prop up the ACC and then bash it -- Colonel Jessup 04/04/2017 2:27PM
I'd love to see the total number of ACC living alumni versus. -- Calamitous 04/05/2017 07:16AM
Alumni, while a large piece of the equation, may not.... -- 2hhoop3 04/05/2017 10:26AM
Yep. A school like Ohio State not only has a giant enrollment and alumni -- reestuart 04/05/2017 10:42AM
B1G has 11 schools with higher enrollments than ACC's #2 -- Colonel Jessup 04/05/2017 09:12AM
Wrong on a few points. -- chuckd4vt 04/04/2017 6:15PM
Missing the point -- Colonel Jessup 04/04/2017 7:47PM
Take a gander at THIS. -- chuckd4vt 04/04/2017 8:17PM
BTW, VT vs. OSU DOMINATED Bama vs. Wisconsin that same weekend. ** -- chuckd4vt 04/04/2017 8:19PM
Remember back when VT was good? VT had 3rd highest rated game of yr. -- chuckd4vt 04/04/2017 8:09PM
I am very aware of that -- Colonel Jessup 04/04/2017 8:20PM
We had best opening night ratings in 6 yrs as an unranked. -- chuckd4vt 04/04/2017 8:25PM
ESPN will put is in primetime. Labor Days, Tenn last year, WVU next year -- Colonel Jessup 04/04/2017 8:47PM
When were we #3 w/ empty seats? -- chuckd4vt 04/04/2017 10:18PM
Think you have some bad information..... -- 2hhoop3 04/05/2017 10:34AM
3rd longest. Sorry. LINKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK -- chuckd4vt 04/05/2017 10:59AM
3rd team in ACC. Below us, 4 - 14 in ACC -- Colonel Jessup 04/04/2017 10:59PM
And what exactly did ACC leadership do to remedy the problem? -- chuckd4vt 04/04/2017 11:05PM
I'm sorry that you have that mindset. VT's a top 20 program. -- chuckd4vt 04/04/2017 8:04PM
Here is my list -- Colonel Jessup 04/04/2017 8:11PM
I think we're RIGHT in front of Oregon, Texas A&M, definitely UCLA. -- chuckd4vt 04/04/2017 8:15PM
Tech: 238,000 living alum give $84 and you have your 20 million -- manassashoo 04/04/2017 07:11AM
