On the former, it may end up being significantly more than that. As of now SU would be making at least twice in the ACC from the primary media deal than it makes in the BE. I don't know the figures, but I suspect we'll do better in terms of secondary and tertiary media money as well. The gap could close when the BE signs a new deal with someone(s) next year, but I'm not sold that it;ll be a slam dunk huge increase (relatively speaking).
 
I'm surprised to see you make the comment about ticket sales though, Tom. Why do you feel that way? In terms of football, I would think at [I]worst[/I] it's a wash. And I'm optimistic that if the program improves we'll do at least somewhat better (no one in the BE travels well aside from WVU, so that doesn't matter, and I'm guessing that if we're decent and playing one of the decent ACC teams the draw is a little better than the dreck of the BE).
 
In terms of hoops, is our attendance[I] that[/I] dependent on opponent? Would a mid-week game against, say, NC State or Georgia Tech really draw much less than against a Marquette or Seton Hall?
