Your mileage my vary...
Sounds like Swofford should be hung by his ********s!! He used the ACC conference to enrich his son when he was an exec at Raycom. Ouch. Talk about "conflict of interest".
That post of his is extremely accurate in terms of the history of the tv deals.

Is there really smoke to this 2027 "thing" or fool's gold?That post of his is extremely accurate in terms of the history of the tv deals.
he‘s not wrong in terms of FSU and tv ratings in the period. miami is still good ratings wise despite a 20 year period of sucking. The brand is that good. It’s not that fsu draws better all things being equal. The previous 20 years show different. Miami just needs to do its part. 2017 ND VT games show it. That’s what FOX will be betting on if this all comes to pass and Miami is part of B1G
I still haven’t found one personal contact or trusted reporter who had any idea of the 2027 ESPN opt out. Or knew that Jim Phillips ( not mentioned in the above) violated league bylaws in nit putting the delay to exercise the option to a vote. Or anyone who gets how the ACC. Can get away thinking they are the NSA around the media agreement secrecy level.
If this is all accurate, the ACC is clearly trying to keep lawyers from getting their hands on things because they know there are major issues if Phillips violated league bylaws.That post of his is extremely accurate in terms of the history of the tv deals.

Yeah, He is Traitor LeBastard's Boss (Meadowlark Media) and as in introduced by chubby as "The man who has made all the billion dollar deals" Yeah, Eight Ball Skipper snickered about his pulling the wool over "friend" Swofford. I'm sure they (Swofford/Skipper) are lawyer'ing up, because all the puff pieces ("Got it down from 2039 to 2036" - Swofford) and Skipper radio conversations mean they are deposition targets.I think Skipper's been on Fat Lebatard and has said the deal is extremely sided to ESPN. He brokered that deal and knows the ins and outs.
It's not Phillips ... he just arrived. It is Swofford who was there for 20 years and used the ACC and it's media rights as a personal gift that he gave to Raycom Sports below market value because his son worked there and they were struggling. He then continued to make "below market" deals for HIS OWN personal benefit (and those of his son) to the detriment of ACC members.If this is all accurate, the ACC is clearly trying to keep lawyers from getting their hands on things because they know there are major issues if Phillips violated league bylaws.

This guy (minus TJ) thematically, I believe, is saying what ya'll have been saying previously...
