Message: [QUOTE="HSPORANGE, post: 2373495, member: 5982"] Yes I think it's a solid business decision for SU to join the ACC and not be left behind in the AAC. SU's payout from ACC last years was 22.8M where the average AAC (where SU would have been stuck had they not left for the ACC) was 5.6M. I understand they would have sold their tier 3 rights to SNY. More people have access to stream via the watch ESPN app than have SNY or YES. I sort of understand your gripe but as far as the business side, SU is in a way better spot now. And I think you are reaching really far out to think that ESPN is using Syracuse to drive people to stream. I glanced and Duke has 6 ACC Network Extra exclusive games. I'm guessing Duke/UNC/Louisville are all as big if not bigger television draws than SU. [/QUOTE]
