The Latest ACC, Pac 12, Big 10 alliance news broken down by @ADavidHaleJoint in tweet form.

Details of the ACC, Pac 12, Big 10 alliance could come soon says CBSSports.com

Nicole Auerbach of The Athletic reports the ACC, Big Ten and Pac-12 are “expected to make a formal announcement about their alignment soon, perhaps as early as next week.”

Of course we are all wondering what does that mean exactly? Here is a good breakdown from @ADavidHaleJoint

So you get the picture – don’t expect anything earth shattering right away, but a counter to the the SEC is definitely in the works.

From an ACC Perspective @MarkEnnis makes a very interesting point.

The SEC is an ESPN property and so is the ACC. The ACC is locked into long term deals with ESPN, with Notre Dame only a wishlist item for the conference at this point. The ACC didn’t have a lot of leverage, but ACC Commissioner Jim Phillip’s may have found some.

By forming an alliance the ACC is now an important component to the future of the landscape of college athletics.

Certainly better than if they were alone. I

If ESPN has interests that the ACC can influence they are much better positioned to do so.

They playoffs are coming up pretty soon, and if ESPN wants them instead of them going to FOX or some other network – then you get the idea.

Everything comes with a price.
