DoctorBombay, based on pay side stealth and discussing a few things in last bball game forum, where I will continue to mention as a safe guard for spill out...I would say that three things are holding further discussion up:
1. Univ of Maryland suit
2. Big East contract that is sooooooooo low it hurts--0r laughable--to discuss but implications are indeed serious
--does ESPN which still have first option come in and trump NBC...if not, possibly more $$$ for ACC
3. Catholic 7 and what it actually means to not only the new BE but also the ACC...
 
I would say that the link below should open everyone's eyes to the impact and strength of media...and in this case [B]FOX and its going after the Catholic 7[/B] and its bid for the Catholic 7--they are going to make nearly as much as the new BE...[B]but the story is vetted by source[/B] and Frankthetank is right on

The implication for ACC is the final contract...both for the new BE (and don't forget they turned down nearly $120 million a year from ESPN to receive less than $25 million a year and what $$$ the Catholic 7 finally get)...but more importantly when they leave. (I will update during Wednesday game). Additionally, Swofford may give an interview this week...look more to tenor of words than to actual points...and [B]think POSITIVE[/B](being as low key as I can get--pass the Jack and Coke)...and damn it, [B]'Cuse find a 12th game so schedule can be released[/B].
