ESPN Kristi Dosh on Tim Brando Show about ACC Network..
1. The ACC Digital Network has more subscibers then any other conference. Yes more then the B1G, SEC, Big XII & Pac 12.
2. The ACC with the fact that ESPN already has most of the ACC content doesn't have to buy back all the 3rd Tier Rights that they had to do with the SEC. That was one of the major hurdles that ESPN had with the SEC Network...buying back the Tier 3 Rights from other Networks/Schools in the SEC.

Expect the ACC Network to be sooner rather then later

i'd go with sooner + based out of charlotte and sold as package, i.e. espn-sec + espn-acc. I could also see the acc network one reason the acc might expand.

I'm still skeptical about them packaging the networks together. What would be the competitive advantage for the conferences? You think the SEC wants the ACC to share in the profits from subscribers in Texas..or the ACC wants the SEC to share in the profits from subscribers in NC/VA?

No, they are not going to package the networks together...what she was saying it going to be easier for ESPN to get the ACC Network up and running then it was for the SEC due to the fact that ESPN doesn't have to buy back all of the different schools Tier 3 Rights.

What I can see them doing is having both networks as a package...it could help the SEC get into traditional ACC Markets-(North Carolina/Virginia etc) on a higher tier and the same for the ACC into SEC Markets-(Alabama, Louisiana & Tennessee)...we shall see.

RE: ESPN Kristi Dosh on Tim Brando Show about ACC Network..
I think a problem that the ACC is going to face with this is the Big Ten actuallly. ESPN could EASILY lose the Big Ten in a few years. So in the winter, that could leave them with a huge hole already in their basketball schedule(esp when combined with losing the Big East). The games that would get on the ACC network would be your like this year Georgia Tech vs Wake Forest or Clemson vs Virginia Tech.

The ACC's problem is football drives the bus. And ACC football is mediocre at best.

Football drives the bus for your main TV revenue (tier 1). For conference networks, basketball plays a large role due to the number of games. Go look at the BTN football schedule. It sucks.

The thing is, especially if the SEC goes to a 9 game schedule-
28 OOC games(avg of 2 per school)
63 conference games
91 games total
CBS gets like 15 games
ESPN gets then 31 games
SECN gets 45 games

There would be a lot of games with top 25 teams showing on the SEC Network.

Also, the SEC has probably the best non Football/Men's Basketball sports in the country. That's huge for their network.

RE: ESPN Kristi Dosh on Tim Brando Show about ACC Network..
ESPN and Disney/ABC are the kings of selling networks to cable systems in bundles. You'd be crazy to thing that they would not bring this winning formula to the marketing of the ACC and SEC networks, with the result being that both networks are likely to achieve broader distribution than they would if marketed separately.

I do wonder what will happen with ESPN and ESPN 2 time slots with conferences having their own networks.

Yes, there is no way in hell the SEC wants any kind of packaging or bundling of its network with the ACC. Why help a lesser conference piggy-back ?

Why on earth would the SEC want to participate in a package that treats the ACC as an equal and helps the ACC sell its network at all?

There is still plenty of content for ESPN 1/2. Using the Pac-12 as an example, ESPN and Fox aired 4 FB games/week and 4-6 BB games/week this year and PTN got the rest. ESPN 1/2 will get at least that much content from the ACC and SEC, and still have more FB and BB games left over for the conference networks than PTN has, because the ACC and SEC have more teams than the Pac-12.

With 14 SEC and 15 ACC hoops teams, even after subtracting the games aired on ESPN 1/2, there are enough games to have live hoops 7 nights a week on those conference networks, if the conferences want to schedule basketball every night.
