Does anybody actually watch the ACCN?

I believe the main impetus of the ACC schools signing the GOR was to create the ACCN so we could feel like equals to the SEC and B1G.
But who actually watches the ACCN???
The only time I watch it is when the rare Clemson football game or two each season is relegated there. I suppose there is a diehard few that watch some conference baseball and softball.
Creation of the ACCN just seems an incredibly poor trade for a GOR that extends to 2036.

They don't show much beyond old Duke and UNC basketball, Lacrosse, historic 80s football, and some softball. Lot of softball is on ESPN+. Accn likes some basketball in season but basically the programming sux.

I quit watching the ACCN when Packman left. The only time now is if they are broadcasting a Clemson football game or baseball championships.

I'm not sure why people don't get this, but none of the conference networks are about viewership. The companies that calculate the ratings for broadcasts don't even take ratings for games that appear on the conference networks.
The money from subscribers is made from subscriptions, and they get a large number of those subscriptions by just including these networks in larger packages.

ESPN never really made a viable effort to attract viewership

to the ACC Network. When your flagship show is two old guys sitting in a basement with their dogs running around, and you show lacrosse and tiddly-winks instead of football a bunch of the time, you are setting yourself up for failure. Intentionally.
