People be real ND wont join Have teams in FL only options WV & Cinn


Jul 25, 2021, 10:43 AM

Not getting any team from SEC or B10

Do we really want teams that don’t at least touch geographically an existing school state?

Everyone says expansion is to extend market UCF would expand we have 2 of the 3 team in FL

Big question why do we need to expand to 16 at all?

Even though Rutgers is in the BIG 10 they could be an option and give the ACC coverage in NJ and eastern NY. BIG would not fight them leaving.

Do people even want to watch Rutgers play in NJ/NY?

Maryland is in the same boat with Rutgers & W. Virginia

Big 10 or 12 would probably not mind losing them--- unlike all the calls for Penn State to jump ship.

You're wrong, the reason b1g brought them and Maryland is TV market. Geography has nothing to do with it. It's all about the money. Wva and Cincinnati does nothing financially for. Helps only them.

ND and ok st. If not ND, ok st and tcu.

Is there a reason that you don't include Baylor? If geography isn't an issue then they seem to be a good option. They are strong in football and women's basketball, and the reigning champion in men's basketball. I haven't seen them mentioned much, so maybe there is a reason that I don't know of that rules them out. Just seems odd that you would mention TCU and not Baylor.

I'm not sure

what formula they use to determine added TV market but their ratings ought to tell them they're going about it wrong.

Notre Dame will join the ACC.


Jul 25, 2021, 11:59 AM

They can’t remain independent in the new environment. Money is getting too big within conferences for ND and their contract to be relevant.

The Irish will get left behind if they don’t join a conference.

I maintain Texas Tech and Oklahoma State are the two best realistic options.

I think they will join a conference. I just think it will be B1G

They can't become a full member of a conference other

than the ACC until 2036. This was posted by someone earlier in the week as being part of the current ND/ACC agreement.

I doubt ND will join the B1G. There is long-standing bad blood between them and Michigan that has never been forgotten (especially by ND).

Maybe ND won’t, but maybe last year could open their eyes. If we face a similar pandemic in the future and Swofford isn’t the ACC commish providing a sweetheart deal for a year to save their season, could that leave ND with no one to play in an event like last season? On the outside looking in? Maybe play BYU and a couple of other independents?

At this point if we don’t team up with B1G to also create a MEGA conference or join the SEC we will fall way behind. We already make peanuts compared to them and the gap will only widen. Getting a USF or WV or Cincy is laughable. Those don’t even begin to move the needle.
