That was assumed. Of course, they'll do what DOD tells them.

I could totally see them doing what Harvard and Yale do and at least try to avoid the farce that is bigtime college athletics. My grad school, Emory U, intentionally did the same thing. They had/have PLENTY of money to get involved, but decided against it due to the corruption that is evident with D1 bball and fball.

It's why I'm in favor of the break away and paying players. EVERYONE is doin it, so less at least take the seediness out of it and put everything out there.

Oddly, Navy, Air Force, and Army have thus far found it reasonable to try to compete. They can SOMETIMES actually SOMEWHAT do so in a sport like football.
I would put it at 50/50 whether or not the brass wants to continue to be a part of this mess. BTW, Army, Navy, and Air Force players are already paid.

Any list that does not have Navy near the top does not understand how -- seekoHoG 05/18/2017 10:23AM

Also the academic profile is important too, not just to ND, but the ACC. -- Stech 05/18/2017 6:27PM

Navy has no business being in a P5 conference** -- hokeyhokie 05/18/2017 10:38AM

Their better than about 1/3+ in the P5 in football and they are fine in -- Stech 05/18/2017 6:25PM

Football only may be the best option with Navy. -- HOO86 05/18/2017 7:52PM

The power relationship between the academies will be interesting. -- Maroon Baboon 05/18/2017 11:02AM

Unlike universities, the academies have a singular mission -- hokeyhokie 05/18/2017 11:04AM

All about whether, or not, they want in. May not want to. -- chuckd4vt 05/18/2017 4:24PM

The academies may not have a say in the matter though. -- VTHokie2000 05/18/2017 5:17PM

Why would the SEC pay the ACC to take Vandy when -- VTHokie2000 05/18/2017 12:01PM

I wish ** -- Hamburger 05/17/2017 7:36PM
