Does anyone know when this will be released?
I don't know. I'm surprised that only ETSU, Mercer, and Kennesaw have released basketball schedules so far.
I would think they will not know the TV schedule until all teams have completed their schedules. This is the earliest that I can remember that ETSU has released their complete schedule. Maybe its because we are not playing in any early season or holiday tourney and it was easy to get done quickly. Also the first time that we play all DI teams that I can remember.
Yea Mercer's was out quickly too. When I read that ETSU's was out, and then saw that Mercer's was out, I assumed that most of them were out. I was very wrong!
This probably only concerns ETSU fans (unless other Asun team are facing ACC teams). Wonder if the ETSU/Clemson game will be on TV???...................

Schedule features UNC-Illinois rematch
Associated Press

GREENSBORO, N.C. -- Atlantic Coast Conference basketball teams will make a record 265 TV appearances, including a rematch of last season's national championship game between North Carolina and Illinois, the conference announced Tuesday.

The schedule is the first that includes Boston College as the conference's 12th member. The Eagles, who played in the Big East Conference last season, play their first ACC game at Maryland on Dec. 11.

North Carolina hosts Illinois in the annual ACC-Big Ten Challenge on Nov. 29, a rematch of the Tar Heels' 75-70 win in St. Louis in April.

The Tar Heels also travel to Kentucky and host Arizona -- tough challenges for a young team that bears little resemblance to last year's champion. North Carolina lost its top seven scorers -- including four underclassmen who were first-round NBA draft picks -- and will rely heavily on senior reserve David Noel (3.9 points per game) and a highly touted recruiting class.

Among the key nonconference matchups are: Duke against Texas and Indiana; Wake Forest against Wisconsin; North Carolina State against Notre Dame and Alabama; and Miami facing Final Four participant Louisville.

It marks the second straight season that the conference has had more than 250 TV appearances and the 11th consecutive season with at least 200. More televised games could be announced later, the ACC said.
265 ACC Appearances or Games? I don't see how they can have that many games with 12 teams.
ACC web site lists the following info on Clemson-ETSU

Dec. 9 Fri. East Tennessee State 7:00 PM FSS

Ok I was just thinking that they must be counting an ACC vs. ACC game on tv as 2 appearances.
