The finances were the key to final approval: Multiple league sources said SMU was willing to accept no ACC media rights revenue for at least nine years, and Stanford and Cal were willing to join as partial members receiving a significantly reduced revenue share initially.

The ensuing conversations did not lead to unanimity, however. On Thursday, the chair and vice chair of the UNC Board of Trustees released a statement ahead of the final vote, expressing the opposition to expansion: “Although we respect the academic excellence and the athletic programs of those institutions, the travel distances for routine in-conference competitive play are too great for this arrangement to make sense for our student athletes, coaches, alumni and fans.
