Message: [QUOTE="OrangePA, post: 35604, member: 204"] Jake didn't understand the "emerging marketing and TV angle" You are incorrect - by a thousand miles. Jake was at the forefront in the development of regional TV broadcasts - he understood better than anyone else the power of TV money. And, he understood in 2003 - before anybody on this board understood - that the ACC offerred stability and TV revenue that the University would need in order to maintain a strong football program. He was way ahead of the curve. While he was not a glad hander or a glutton for photo ops, he was an innovator to the end and was and remains highly respected in the business. Sorry, but you're post is not accurate. [/QUOTE]
