No news is no news.....expecting this for another decade or so.....or a network with small revenue.
ACC's Swofford on potential cable channel
"# Any conversation with Swofford must include an inquiry about a potential ACC channel, in concert with ESPN, dedicated to the league. Indeed, not asking would bring the wrath of the Twitterverse.
“We continue to explore it, and there’s no substantive news to report about it at this point in time,” he said with a chuckle, “and we’ll probably say very little about it until there is.”
Swofford’s preference for understatement here is rational. Ratcheting up expectations and/or negotiating in public serve no one’s interests.
But safe to say ACC and ESPN officials are encouraged by the SEC Network’s successful rollout, which bodes well for an ACC launch in 2016 or ’17."
I'll give him this much - he knows how to keep a secret.
