ND again said "No sale". Why would it do that?

ACC ADs + ND AD John Swarbrick are lining the front row as Swofford speaks.

It was a better deal for ND than even I thought and certainly much better than you were telling me yesterday.

WHY DEAR LORD WHY

David Teel's article states that there would have been no ACC Network without Notre Dame.

Quote:... lest you think waiting on ACC Network revenue until 2019 will compromise the league financially: Say hello to what Swofford calls “the channel clause.”

Written into the ACC’s previous agreement with ESPN, signed after the additions of Pitt, Syracuse and Notre Dame, the clause guaranteed the league additional rights fees absent a channel.

“There will be a (rights fees) bump in these next years until we get to the linear channel,” Swofford said during an exclusive interview hours after the formal announcement.

- David Teel.

I guess you could say
Channel Clause is coming to town!

I dont believe that for a minute. If basketball is the backbone of the ACCN, then what importance is ND basketball as compared to Duke, UNC Louisville and Syracuse? Let alone Virginia and Pitt. It sounds more like that blurb from Teel is more his shortsighted opinion than a fact. And he's giving ND fb much more credit than it deserves regarding the ACCN.

So the ACC is still getting the $45 million bump until 2019?

Jack Swarbrick is a pretty smart guy. I bet he can multiply a number by 10. Why didn't he pull the trigger? You have to think that the ACC and ESPN put the carrot and stick to ND to get them to do just that.

ND again said "No sale". Why would it do that?

TO BE SURE

I wonder if they plan to put an occasional ND @ ACC football game on the new ACCN? Let's see, 2019...
Notre Dame @ Louisville on Labor Day night? NO WAY
Notre Dame @ Ga Tech? DOUBTFUL
Notre Dame @ Duke? A POSSIBILITY...

Notre Dame will not allow any of its road football games to be televised by a conference tv network. Never. No way. They'll leave before they play a game on the ACC network. NBC for home games and ABC for away games (CBS for Navy game)
Cheers!

if they are getting a full share of the network, then I don't think this is an issue. Bank on the Louisville ND game being one of the networks first games.

They put their "home" game against BC on NBCSN just last year. What's the big deal? We are only talking ONE game in X years.

Did we get any other raises for extending the TV contract until 2036 or are we stuck at the current amount? A raise would be justified for that long of an extension.

I think that's implicit in the announcement, which suggests that the overall per school payout will be competitive with the Big Ten and SEC.

Guys ignore billybobby. On the realignment board he is one of the biggest ACC haters there is. He is really salty. Who can blame him though, he just realized ECU was stuck in an even worse AAC forever. Poor guy.

Billy, leave the ACC/ND discussion to people who actually know what they are talking about.

That's the key point in all of this for me, did we get a raise on the TV contract. If we did then I'm 100% happy. If not then I'm concerned. The announcement was far too vague for my taste. I want to see numbers, the projections.
