Direct peers

• Duke University Athletics: Duke's ACC athletic department shares the conference media-rights and conference scheduling arrangements as GTAA, with comparable premium-seating product, multi-sport sponsorship portfolio, and fundraising campaigns under a private-university governance structure.
• Virginia Tech Athletics (Hokies): Virginia Tech is an ACC peer with a comparable football-driven business model, shared ACC Network distribution, and a similar stadium-renovation trajectory, making it a useful structural comparator.
• Florida State University Athletics (Seminoles): FSU's ACC athletic department competes with GTAA in the same football and revenue-distribution pool, with a comparable stadium/facility product and donor-funded capital plans — an appropriate direct comparator on financial scale and revenue mix.
• University of Virginia Athletics: Virginia Sports operates the same number of varsity sports within the ACC, shares the ACC Network distribution, and competes in the same revenue pool — a directly comparable mid-to-upper-tier ACC department on both operating scale and sponsorship mix.
• University of North Carolina Athletics (Tar Heels): UNC's athletic department is a fellow ACC member sharing media-rights, conference scheduling, and recruiting markets with Georgia Tech, and serves as a benchmark for multi-sport performance, donor-base scale, and apparel partnerships (Nike).
• University of Miami Athletics (Hurricanes): Miami's ACC department is a direct peer in football recruiting markets, ACC scheduling, and apparel partnerships (Adidas), and competes for the same corporate-sponsor dollars and conference revenue share as Georgia Tech.
• Clemson University Athletic Department: Clemson's athletic department is the most direct ACC peer — same conference, Power-4 football program with national-championship-level performance, comparable tier of sponsorships, premium stadium product, and ACC Network media deal, making it the closest functional benchmark for GTAA.

Broad incumbents

• Notre Dame Fighting Irish Athletics: Notre Dame's independent athletic department operates a premium national brand across football and other sports with a national media-rights deal (NBC), providing a useful benchmark for monetizing an independent-ACC-style national brand portfolio at scale.
• University of Texas Longhorns Athletics: Texas Longhorns Sports represents a broader incumbent Power-4 athletic department whose scale and SEC-media partnership illustrate the upside ceiling for athletic-department revenue, sponsorship inventory, and facility investment at the highest level.
• Ohio State Buckeyes Athletics: Ohio State is a broader Power-4 incumbent that benchmarks top-of-market scale in football ticket pricing, premium-seat revenue, and apparel partnerships (Nike), representing the upper bound of what an athletic department can scale to.
