ACC doesn't have much longer to last.
"Greg Sankey announced that approximately $651 MILLION of total revenue was divided among the 14 universities of the SEC for the 2018-19 fiscal year (up from $627.1 million distributed in 2017-18. That's $44.6 million per school. Wow."
"$44.6 million per school BEFORE the CBS package increases in value by 6X when it goes to ESPN."

This increase is stunning, and the ACC is going to be woefully behind, revenue-wise. The ACC will stay together IMO because now even the most valuable school won't be worth it to the SEC - no team except maybe Texas adds $65 to $70M per year (much less the $100M they'd be looking for). It's crazy! The only question now is "what can the ACC do about it?"
