Roll Over Adam Smith

.......was thinking that minor league football/basketball as played by the ACC (and the other power 5 conferences) was little more than the revenge of Appomattox Court House but the reality is that the northern schools, many of which languish at the bottom of the league standings in both sports, have again outsmarted the Confederates by getting them to agree to egalitarian revenue sharing, with each member school (except ND who has their own tv contract) receiving the same annual league payout from bowls, playoffs and tv contracts regardless of their on-the-field win/loss record or revenue generated. When seeking the rationale as to why BC extended the contract of their obviously inept football coach (and quite possibly their basketball coach as well - don't follow the sport), look no further than the annually guaranteed $30 large from the league.
