For example... If ESPN told the ACC that in return for two ACC teams going to the SEC the TV contract would stay the same, it would be the equivalent of buying back the TV rights. So the ACC would have two full TV shares to divide 15 ways (more $ per team). ESPN now has more SEC inventory. If they are paying an extra $100M per year for those two, can they make $115M+? If so then it would make sense. Brand wise adding FSU and Clemson makes sense. Although SECN wise UNC and VA Tech would make the most sense as they add new states and markets to the SEC. If it is profitable (which I wouldn't think it is), then it could happen. Otherwise these teams are all stuck here. [/QUOTE]
