[QUOTE="Alsacs, post: 415276, member: 652"]
The reason is because Penn State was worthless to the ACC till 2027 with B1G GOR they signed in 2011 when Nebraska joined the conference. When the B1G has decided to expand again the conference must again get all schools to sign away there GOR because 2 more schools will get stakes in BTN. Swofford wouldn't have gotten Penn State without its GOR as they would be worthless to the ACC and add another mouth to feed.  The ND move to the ACC rattled Delany's cage for sure. All Penn St's home games would still be the property of the B1G with them signing away their GOR, now that the B1G has expanded it reopens the GOR and gives Penn State some leverage they haven't had since the sanctions. Swofford should tamper with Penn St without its GOR and go to ESPN and explain to them that the B1G is going to sell its tier 1 rights in 2017 to the highest bidder.ESPN will not be the overwhelming favorite to get the rights because of the FOX/News Corp relationship with the BTN. Thus, if Swofford went to Penn State and ESPN explained that more money would work for Penn St and prevent the ACC from being destroyed this could happen.
