Hmmm just as rumors of Notre Dame joining the conference surface? Interesting.
Where are there rumors of ND joining the ACC? Are these rumors coming from a basement in WV?Hmmm just as rumors of Notre Dame joining the conference surface? Interesting.
No those rumors our that West Virginia is deciding between offers to the Big Ten in the ACC.Where are there rumors of ND joining the ACC? Are these rumors coming from a basement in WV?
Too good for the SEC, eh?No those rumors our that West Virginia is deciding between offers to the Big Ten in the ACC.
Academics too strong, though you know that the SEC would be interested.Too good for the SEC, eh?
ND already gets a full, equal share of ACC Network profits, the same amount as the other 14 schools.Hmmm just as rumors of Notre Dame joining the conference surface? Interesting.
I believe they get a partial share:ND already gets a full, equal share of ACC Network profits, the same amount as the other 14 schools.
It doesn't have to join for football to get this money.
That is not how math works, unless you think ND basketball is worth $0.Notre Dame receives 20% of one full share of the ACC's guaranteed rights fees. This is the bulk of the money that the conference distributes. The ACC and Notre Dame agreed to this split because about 80% of conference revenue comes from football.
Notre Dame does receive a full share of ACC Network money. This nets a couple to a few million extra for Notre Dame while the other 14 members receive a few hundred thousand less (than if the Irish received 20% of this too).
In sum, Notre Dame receives about 25% of what other members are paid by the conference.
My comments aren't what I think. They are relaying what I read back in the day. About 25% of a full member's overall distribution share was a commonly cited estimate. (See old articles from David Teel and other ACC beat writers.)That is not how math works, unless you think ND basketball is worth $0.
The main takeaway is, as I noted, in the the opening portion ("Absent Notre Dame, there might not well be an ACC Network. Its name was a driving force in ESPN exploring the project, a development that quickly led to the conference's 2013 grant of media rights, which bound members to the league through 2027") and closing portion ("Trust me, having the Irish in the league, and locked in by a grant of media rights through 2035-36, is worth a heck of a lot more to their ACC colleagues than $460,000 apiece, let alone $290,000"). The stupid hypothetical math exercise is irrelevant as the premise of the article is that ND, at a minimum, is carrying its weight and nobody is giving them anything.My comments aren't what I think.

I just looked up reporting on the the latest actual financials. Notre Dame actually did better than 25% in the most recently reported year (FY 2019-20). The 14 ACC full members received an average of $32.3 million (that includes ACC Network money). Notre Dame received $10.8 million from the conference (including ACC Network money).
10.8 divided by 32.3 = 33%
Notre Dame merits its full share of ACC Network revenue

I believe Notre Dame brings far more money/value into the ACC than they extract from it. So if that's your point, we agree. But that has little to do with my previous posts, which discussed the mechanics of how money is divided and distributed.The main takeaway is, as I noted, in the the opening portion ("Absent Notre Dame, there might not well be an ACC Network. Its name was a driving force in ESPN exploring the project, a development that quickly led to the conference's 2013 grant of media rights, which bound members to the league through 2027") and closing portion ("Trust me, having the Irish in the league, and locked in by a grant of media rights through 2035-36, is worth a heck of a lot more to their ACC colleagues than $460,000 apiece, let alone $290,000").

Because the Big 12, SEC, and Group of 5 want the top 6 rated champs regardless of conference.If the BiG is in favor, how does this not pass? Only objection would be from SEC.
