Quote:Neff and athletic director Dan Radakovich placed just a modest increase on Clemson’s budget for the new network. Last year, the ACC reported about $26 million per school for his television revenue. The Clemson Athletic Department budgeted just over $29 million for this coming season.

“We hope we can do more, but that is what we budgeted,” Neff said. “We feel like it will increase over the years. We feel good about what we budgeted and we’re confident we can at least get there.”

TCI learned Swofford informed each school a few weeks back that they should get the $3 million off the network. And though the ACC is excited about its network, its far behind what the SEC and Big Ten reported last year.

SEC schools made $40.9 million off its television revenue last year, while the Big Ten Reported $37 million.

How much of that increase would simply be escalation in the original tv deal?

I’m assuming there’s a little bit of both in there. Most of the bump certainly is the ACCN though.

Based on past escalators about 1.4 million. The numbers cited however are essentially 2 years old. Last year the Big 10's combined media payout was 54 million and the SEC's was 43.7.

But this is not surprising. The ACC is not as transparent with its revenue as other conferences and what is reported via Equity in Athletics and what they claim usually are a couple of million apart.

JRSec,

Do you think the ACCN will be successful? I have my doubts.

I don’t remember the SECN having those hurdles in 2014.

It's too early to tell. The SEC had better carriage at its open. But then it was timed better to contract expiration. Also the concept opened under a definite market footprint cable subscription fee pay model. That's not the driving force now, content value is. T3 is still subscription based but as we move to more P games it will be less and less relevant.

I think the ACCN will earn them 3 million by year 2 and possibly more. I think the ceiling is 8 million until the cable model completely changes at which point I don't think the BTN or SECN remain as they are presently comported.

According to Swofford, he says $3 million for next year and it seems that thats what Clemson budgeted for next year, even though they feel that $3 million is the minimum and they will get at least that. Three million is not great and its not horrible. I have heard that the SEC, first year was between $3 million and $5 million per school, with $3 million being the latest figure for their initial year. So if the ACC gets $3 million first year, that would be very encouraging.

The $3 million is obviously including the escalator clause in total TV rights payout you #goacc apologists like to promote since Clemson is only budgeting a $3 million increase based on what the ACC is telling them.

South Carolina had a $5 million increase in revenue from the SEC Network the first year. Clemson is expecting a $3 million increase based upon conference office projections. Math was never my strong suit but that appears to be a negative $2 million difference, but I readily admit I could be wrong. As one of the biggest #goacc homers on this board who have essentially ran me off from my own conference message board explain exactly where I am wrong in my deduction.

Not only should this spin be entertaining it should have a direct effect on the track of Hurricane Dorian.
