U.Va., Virginia Tech investing millions in ACC Network preparations
Posted Jun 24, 2017
The ACC cable channel is scheduled to debut in August 2019, but to minimize initial hiccups, ESPN wants the league’s 15 schools to be operational a year in advance. This requires infrastructure and personnel capable of producing network-caliber programming. Virginia, Florida State and Duke are far ahead of pace, with the ACC’s 12 other campuses in various states of readiness.
