For the record, I think it would be a bad strategy on the B1G part.

It was just something I saw. I think just having a handful of teams far removed from the footprint is ill-advised. Maybe some sort of federation, a quasi-merger with the Pac12 might be more appropriate.

Question: why do you think the ACC is off limits to the B1G?

And FWIW, I always thought the merger that made most sense was the BigXII and the Pac-12. It would have been an asset to the sport in a national sense. But this SEC cherry picking of the BigXII is bad for all parties outside the immediate transaction.

ND and the ACC in the SEC-16 context. -- Maroon Baboon 07/22/2021 12:06PM

The new playoff model cements ND's independence.... -- Freddyburg Hokie 07/22/2021 4:36PM

The move by Tx and OK might lead conferences breaking away from the NCAA -- VTHal 07/22/2021 1:49PM

If there is a "P4" it won't be balanced. -- Maroon Baboon 07/22/2021 2:07PM

Depends on how much ND cares about the ACC. If they don't care, nothing -- Stech 07/22/2021 12:49PM

ND can always move their BB & non-revenue teams to another conference -- EDGEMAN 07/22/2021 3:06PM

I don't think ND wants those in the B1G. Don't think SEC either. -- HOO86 07/22/2021 3:27PM

Its an option for ND -- TerryD 07/22/2021 7:06PM

I don't think...... -- 2hhoop3 07/22/2021 7:12PM

I was thinking of all the "checkmate" 2010 posts.... -- TerryD 07/22/2021 7:22PM

The old stockbroker..... -- 2hhoop3 07/22/2021 8:08PM

I don't think or expect ND to care about the ACC. -- Maroon Baboon 07/22/2021 12:59PM

Not now, because so much is still moving. The Big 10 is -- goldendomer 07/22/2021 1:04PM

Just heard the Dude of Minnesota guy say that the B1G won't sit by -- Maroon Baboon 07/22/2021 1:27PM

It would serve Maryland basketball right to play in Oregon Tues nites. -- HOO86 07/22/2021 1:33PM

ACC is under Contract and GOR through 3036-37 -- HOO86 07/22/2021 1:46PM

2023 is the perfect time for PSU to make their move to the ACC...lol ** -- EDGEMAN 07/22/2021 3:07PM

It would be, but I don't expect to see it. -- HOO86 07/22/2021 3:10PM

Hard to take a pay cut, even to move to a better situation. ** -- EDGEMAN 07/22/2021 3:18PM

I will be over a thousand years old than. I really won't care if we join in -- goldendomer 07/22/2021 1:50PM

3036??? Dang....and I thought 15 years was a long time :) ** -- 5000 Miles to Blacksburg 07/22/2021 1:48PM

That is a tough question. One can care, yet not commit. -- goldendomer 07/22/2021 12:47PM

Yep only 1 of them got you to act, if ND doesn't care enough to act no ring -- Stech 07/22/2021 12:57PM

Right now we are in the what next phase. In theory, this -- goldendomer 07/22/2021 12:16PM

Short term, no. Medium term probably. -- Atlee Hokie 07/23/2021 04:05AM
