Message: [QUOTE="bevosu, post: 290894, member: 46"] I'm far from knowing all the details. Only going by some of the numbers that have been tossed around. I haven't read any real detailed rundown on what that contract involves. Just basing my thoughts on how optimistic people seemed to be (to me) after the news concerning the money other conferences were getting. Initially I didn't read a lot about the ACC being a potential orphan conference. People seemed to think the ACC was in a decent bargaining position. I heard things like..Live TV sports is in high demand (Adv). Speculation that other networks might kick the numbers up due to competition. I guess things changed? Or the initial optimism might have been a little over the top? Or my optimism might have been irrational and I just discounted more balanced opinions? The disappointment for me is based more on a gut feeling than anything objective. [/QUOTE]
