the whole possibility of the ACC Network coming to be, they have improved the TV contract even with five games a year in football, they improve non-conference schedule strength for all teams in the conference when they play them. Like you, I'd rather they be full time, but I think it is a good deal for ACC and Notre Dame. ALso, if they ever do feel they have to join a conference,and that's a big if, the contract says it will be ACC. Notre Dame is not the magical mystique it used to be, but they still draw a big spotlight on teams that are playing them and bring a lot of notoriety to the league, even if only playing 5 league games a year.
