Sources: ESPN set to televise ACC through 2036
ESPN has agreed to pick up its option to broadcast ACC sports through 2036, sources told ESPN. The decision comes as the ACC works toward settling lawsuits by Clemson and Florida State.
Under the proposed plan, a percentage of the ACC's television revenue would be included in a "brand" fund, and that money would then be distributed to schools that annually generate the most revenue for the conference in football and men's and women's basketball -- with Clemson, Florida State, Miami and North Carolina likely at the top of the pyramid, sources told ESPN.
The tally on dollars lost ignoring Football and letting MBB sit in the crapper, will continue to grow for Stanford. I sincerely hope all that losing that wiped out tens of millions of revenue translated into something equally valuable for Stanford, and wasn't just throwing money away.
