And I don't blame Notre Dame for doing that one bit. Though if money was their primary motivator then they would have joined the B1G 8 years ago rather than hitching their wagon to the ACC.

UVa/UNC to B1G is probably the only thing that gets VT a sniff from SEC. -- cincyhokie 08/11/2021 07:18AM

Exactly the fate of the ACC is w/ ESPN & ND. ND joins ESPN is happy w/ ACC. -- Stech 08/09/2021 07:07AM

Exactly, I've always thought networks only want only a few schools -- VaTech2021 08/09/2021 7:47PM

Your last sentence is exactly what I think they're going for. -- hokieball 08/09/2021 09:18AM

The SEC would want NC State or Virginia Tech before they'd want Miami. -- tarheelblue 08/09/2021 2:26PM

That is true for the carriage fee based TV model. -- VTHokie2000 08/09/2021 2:48PM

Never a good thing to have your fate in either of those entities hands. -- goldendomer 08/09/2021 12:31AM

You mean semi-independent right? ND has a 5 game schedule with the ACC. 2-3 -- Stech 08/09/2021 7:05PM

Semantics without meaning -- TerryD 08/09/2021 7:49PM

Not at all, you are playing the ACC 5 games every year. You might not like -- Stech 08/09/2021 8:02PM

The SEC and B1G will give Notre Dame the same deal every other member gets. -- tarheelblue 08/09/2021 4:30PM

Of course, what Terry means we likely will chase the biggest check if -- goldendomer 08/09/2021 6:08PM

Yep, the biggest check....that is what I was saying, the best deal -- TerryD 08/09/2021 7:47PM

Gotcha -- tarheelblue 08/09/2021 7:32PM

You miss an important factor -- TerryD 08/09/2021 8:27PM

You mean aside..... -- 2hhoop3 08/09/2021 8:55PM

In ten years, that can be bought out to join a super conference.... -- TerryD 08/09/2021 11:23PM

Absolutely correct....... -- 2hhoop3 08/10/2021 08:42AM

The question is what would the penalty be for doing that. -- tarheelblue 08/10/2021 12:20AM

ND's home football games are not included in the GOR -- TerryD 08/10/2021 08:20AM

I know they're not currenty -- tarheelblue 08/10/2021 11:02AM

ND football is not going to join the ACC -- TerryD 08/10/2021 1:16PM

Everything changes..... -- 2hhoop3 08/10/2021 1:39PM

Never said any different... -- 2hhoop3 08/10/2021 2:04PM

Yes, -- tarheelblue 08/10/2021 1:23PM
