The ACC reported $302,306,749 in revenue, $11 million more than the $291.7 million it had estimated last spring. The windfall was 30 percent higher than the prior period's revenue of $232.4 million and nearly double 2009-10’s $158.2 million.
In terms of Boston College, its $19.4M share is a neat bonus for the university. We have to remember that these fees are being used to support the non-revenue sports on campus, and I bet they are needed to support a fledgling men and women's basketball teams.
Still it's a lot of money, and one hopes that the school will allocate these incremental revenues along to look at building a new indoor practice facility. One would also think that ACC money would be used to give BC a competitive advantage in terms of building their football program, but Bates & Co. have been awfully quiet on any news regarding future improvements in a while
