I agree his work with IMG is of interest too.

I think the new ACC deal with ESPN took all the tier 3 material (like SU basketball exhibition games, the spring football game, olympic sports like soccer and volleyball) off the table and effectively ended SU's relationship with Time Warner Sports.

But I am hopeful he will be more successful than the previous ADs at getting the SU coaches shows distributed on SNY, MSG, YES or other channels accessible by most alums, fans and recruits.  Also hopeful he can address the quality of these shows (they are really poorly done and appear to be working with the smallest budget possible; in marked contrast to peer schools in the ACC and B1G).  We also need to do a better job distributing rebroadcasts of SU games, full and abridged, etc. (if this is still possible with ACC Network Extra).  They need to find their way on to SNY, MSG, YES, etc.

There are lots of ACC olympic sports games televised on ACC Network Extra but few if any from SU venues.  His work getting a studio up and running for UT (surely mostly for the SEC network) will also be helpful.  We are behind many other ACC schools here and it results in a lot less visibility for our olympic sports and their venues.  This needs to be addressed ASAP.
