Message: [QUOTE="chakka3421, post: 421278, member: 1091"] Texanmark - actually I think in the TWC Upstate NY cluster are 3 million plus households as it extends to all of NY north of Poughkeepsie and parts of Western Mass. I dont have the exact number but it would be interesting to find out for sure. I dont think Syr/Upstate brings enough to the table $1 x 3 million basic cable per month = $36 million per year to B10 perhaps at best. Bigger fish to go after first before Syracuse is ever in play. Plus Syracuse is not an AAU member and a private college - doesnt fit the mold. After calming down from earlier this week, I think Syracuse really has a good chance of being locked out in the end due to demographics alone. The only chance for the ACC to survive is to start its own network or ESPN has to give up its rights on the stranglehold it has on the ACC. If ESPN is quite satisfied with just having the SEC network survive, then the ACC is doomed. [/QUOTE]
