Likely be a one off at first. But this pandemic is a great unknown

to everyone. People seem to think a vaccine is the panacea for life to return to normal. I hope it will be but there is a lot of unknowns. Therefore, if we come in full one year and enjoy it and things go well than that could be a victory for the ACC. Then if the Big 12 folds and pressures from the outside again appear ND may face less fervent push back to be indy.

DO I feel like it is likely? No, but it seems like a plausible way forward to those who would like us to join in full. ND has never competed in a conference so their is a lack of understanding and distance we have toward the unknown.
