ACC fans gang busting on the Big 12, WVU and the poster known as Buckaineer....ACC fans accusing me of being someone else --because if you don't fly the ACC colors on these boards--you must be someone else I guess?.... and ACC fans celebrating having the lowest tv contract of the P5 (or whatever they go by now) conferences-and pretending its better than everyone else's. Yeah, I'd say that about covers it. Nothing new here.

It is interesting to note that Maryland stated the ACC would be paying out $20 million per member by 2014 for everything. Not surprising its right as expected to be. Based on the fact that has played out as it was reported--by 2017 the Big Ten will be about $19 to $20 million ahead of ACC payouts.

you've been busy today spinning the ACC contract haven't you "Buck"? lol. If you are not Buckaineer, you and the "dodge" poster argue just like Buck.

Let's recap the week.

• SEC and Big 12 release conference disbursements
  

This lead to two things. 1st we went into detail about the complex multimedia deals that teams have. Big 12 teams have TV in theirs, others do not. In the end, it was determined no advantage to anyone but Texas because teams from other leagues also make extra money outside of conference TV money on multimedia deals too. The TV portion of about 70% of the schools in the Big 12 was not substantial enough to separate them from other conferences that pool their tier 3 . That lead to the second big discussion. Team revenue from 2012-2013 were discussed and most detractors felt that due to all the money flowing into the Big 12, more teams should at least be Top 25-30 in revenue. That point was adverted and focus was directed at subsidies because certain teams that were looked down upon by B12 fans were right there with the Big 12 teams in terms of revenue.

• ACC finally releases disbursements
  

At first it was a running joke on the BGN Big 12 board they were hiding the info due to it being so low, etc.
Let's note that the Big 12 never has the most money distributed due to the low number of teams. They always lay claim to having the "highest payout per team" due to having "less mouths to feed". So the ACC releases their disbursement at $291 million or so divided among 14 teams, it averages out around $20.6 or 8 million dollars, right in the same level as the SEC.
At first, you could hear a rat pee on cotton over there but then here comes ole Buckaineer. LOL The conversation twists from sheer numbers to dealing in semantics on what a full share is. 8 teams getting $23 million and 2 getting $15 million is what you call not getting a full share. A team getting $19.6 million and one getting $18M and one $16.9M sounds like a full share but adjusted for travel and bowl game performance. Big Difference!

Now the focus from a certain poster seems to be on saying that the ACC is giving away Maryland's share and stealing from Notre Dame's share(how can you steal from Notre Dame when the eers always label them as greedy bloodsuckers?)

other than that, you haven't missed much
