There's simply not enough content for a single school specific network.

Notre Dame's deal with NBC is only for home games not picked up by ESPN/ABC. Also, it's not NBC's sole focus. Notre Dame makes up 5-6 programming slots for the peacock out of one year, not all Irish all the time.

Exactly! But what ND does do is it makes an ACC network that much more valuable for all the sports not called football.

tu would bring the same value to a conference. However, that is impossible as long as the LHN exists. And ESPN sure as Hell isnt going to trash the LHN simply to pay an increase to the SECN with no way to make it up with higher carriage fees.

I might add the word live to content but pretty spot on
