Can someone explain why so long?
Jul 21, 2016, 11:04 AM

I obviously don't know the TV industry. It seems like something like this shouldn't take 3 years. A lot of the games are already being televised so they could "go live" with what is already present and perhaps the smaller sports might come on line 2,3 years later.
Glad to hear this though.

I find that date very interesting, as I believe this is the year that Notre Dame's current TV contract terminates...makes me wonder if there is a correlation here.

You mean the rights Swofford sold to ESPN,

ACC required that Raycom be a partner when they

negotiated the deal with ESPN years ago which surprised even ESPN because they got a better deal out of it.
Swofford's son happened to be working at Raycom at that time, you can connect the dots there

Had thsoe 3rd tier rights that were sold to Raycom
Jul 21, 2016, 12:28 PM

not been sold to Raycom, they would have still been sold to someone else just like the other rights that Raycom didn't get were.So there'd still be a wait until those contracts expired , to get the 3rd tier rights back.No math or whining about the same old tired sh!t required.

ACC could have kept the 3rd tier rights or negotiated
Jul 21, 2016, 1:59 PM

a better deal for them...Big Ten and SEC did a much better job of leveraging them to make $$ instead of giving ESPN the entire farm.
But this is getting out of the scope of the original question of why this network isn't launching for 3 years. It's due to Raycom

3 years? Won't happen. They'll change their mind 50 times between now & then

ESPN will find a reason not to do it between now and then

Didn't I read somewhere that another part to this agreement was that if Notre Dame joins a conference before 2036, it has to be the ACC?
I hope they are left out of the 4 team playoff at some point and the sole reason is that they didn't play in a conference championship game! They they will be forced to join a conference like the rest of us! GO TIGERS!

Does this mean no more F-ing blackouts with our games on ESECPN 3? If not they still haven't done sh!t to ensure we have televised games. I'm pretty sure that there is a hidden cost somewhere in my TWC bill used to pay for the ESECPN 3 network, then ESECPN 3 blacks us out, and that way more than sucks!!!

Wonder if these pin heads will allow Canadians to get this channel? Like pulling teeth trying to get a CLEMSON game in Toronto

Am I the only one who thinks this sounds like the same crappy coverage we already have ? "Enhanced digital coverage" . Sounds like ESPN3 aka online , is being renamed. Sounds like Raycom is being renamed.
Either launch an actual channel or quit signing agreements that tie us up with nothing in return!!
