Only because the new SEC deal is about to kick in. From there, they jump basically to the top.

Well,

If you look at it from a TV revenue perspective I see why Tech is saying they will stay put. Only a 2 million dollar difference ?

That difference may be eaten up after you consider the other sports and the travel expense.

The ACC appears to be in much better condition if the numbers are right, than I thought. At that rate our debt could be paid off in 5 years if we decided to do so. Looks like the AD is in better condition than we have been led to think.
