Message: [QUOTE="TerryD, post: 3918454, member: 3399"] Because the ACC payouts from partial membership and the ACC Network are set in contract, no matter what ND does before the ACC is gone. Because ND's TV deal comes up in 2025, without a GOR, rather than in 2036 or later (if football joins, ESPN will want a longer GOR) with a GOR. Because ND can put the contract on the open market in a few years, and get NBC, CBS, ESPN and maybe Amazon to bid on it. Because the payout doesn't have to satisfy 14 or 15 schools, just ND. [/QUOTE]
