As previously discussed, the whispers continue concerning the upcoming ACCnetwork. As those whispers become louder, so does the belief that in early 2016 the final decision will be made. As indicated in a article by David Teel last evening with VT AD Babcock:

"Fans often ask me when they can expect the ACC to launch such a project, and Babcock said [B]he expects a yes-or-no decision within 18 months.[/B]

“That SEC Network is really impressive,” he said. “I believe even before they launched they had more households than [URL='http://www.dailypress.com/topic/business/media-industry/television-industry/espnu-%28tv-network%29-ORCRP000017468.topic']ESPNU[/URL]. … I think in some respects we need to root for the [B]SEC Network to do well because ESPN will have the template and we can follow it in 2016.
Additionally, the following list is being checked:
[LIST]
[*]SEC network successful--to date it has gained carriage necessary to be successful
[*]ACC signed the GOR--signed
[*]Univ. Maryland lawsuit -- finalized
[*]ACC football continues it upward swing...this season important
[*]No major change in TV viewership takes place in next 2 years nor is projected over next 10 years
[/LIST]
My belief, as documented previously, is not if the ACCnetwork happens but when...bet on 2016-2017 at latest to be aired.[/B]
