ACC revenue

[TIGER-PAUL]

The ACC brought in more than $300 million in revenue during 2013-14, distributing more money than initially projected, the league disclosed Friday.

According to IRS filings, the ACC had a record $302.3 million in revenue in 2013-14, its first year as a 15-member league. It also paid its member institutions $11 million in league championship game/tournament reimbursements, raising its total revenue number to $313.3 million.

The 14 full-time ACC members received $22.1 million on average, an increase of more than $1 million per school over projections made last year. Notre Dame, a member in all sports but football, received $4.9 million, according to the IRS filing.

The ACC does not own the schools' marketing and merchandise rights, so the total revenue does not include any multimedia deals schools have on their own.

The conference does not yet have the financial numbers for 2014-15, but the total revenue is expected to be higher based on increased money from the College Football Playoff and its exit settlement with Maryland.

According to CBSSports, the ACC's revenue increased 30 percent from 2012-13. The league received an influx of cash from a new television deal and its members' bowl games.

However, that figure($313.3 million) still lagged behind the Pac-12 ($374 million), Big Ten ($338.9 million) and SEC ($325.9 million), the website reported.

Really, the difference in revenue is between the major conferences is negligible -- a mil or two per team. When your in the 22M range, that difference doesn't mean much. The move to the ACC save us. If the Big East were still around with Pitt still in it, we'd be getting 5M or so, and the AAC, which we would have been left in, gets less than that. That would've put us in a non-competitive position. So, 22M v. 23 or 24M is insignificant. Perspective is everything.

Cannot find any thing recent except for the SEC, they paid 31.2 million to each school. Going by gross revenues can be misleading. The PAC wholly owns their network, which makes their expenses higher. Whether this is a stroke of genius or a miscalculation remains to be seen.
