Karl Dorrell will be remembered as a hero for centuries
The TV contract certainly wasn't an issue when ND played as a full member of the ACC 2 years ago. The contract with NBC could easily be worked out one way or another and the money ND gets from that pales in comparison to what they would get from the B1G. Plus ND could probably be guaranteed a game on CA every year now with SC and UCLA on board so they wouldn't be giving up an annual game in CA. ND likes to play games in the east coast too. No problem, Rutgers and Maryland are there. If anything it would make perfect sense for ND, they would just have to swallow their pride.
And the value of the B1G media rights could end up being even more if ND joins. We'd be talkig about a conference with USC, ND, Ohio State, and Michigan, those are 4 of the biggest names in college football.
this is not happening now. zero chance.
they have already made 2 playoffs and their chances to make more are not getting worse, they are getting better-- the p5 auto bid idea is dead.
and, the acc doesn't matter.
ND could likely be blackmailed to join a conference at this point.... if B1G0 and SEC say join a conference or you wont be scheduled. With the remaining Scrap programs it poses a problem where their playoff hopes die and the ACC isn't likely to hold up... So ... Big10 or SEC
yes eventually that will be how it will go-- the current system and contracts give them everything they want. when that changes, they will change. we aren't there yet.
they do not have to make that decision now. they are the ****ing fighting irish-- they have a seat at the big kids table no matter what happens.
Bill Walton be like
Notre Dame would be just fine remaining independent in football.
They're such a draw that they could line up a quasi B1G schedule with a set of traditional rivals: USC, UM, MSU, Purdue.
Then add Stanford, BC and Navy.
Final 5 games are flex and it's more than enough schedule to make the playoffs while drawing huge numbers.

Would you prefer the chicken with it's head cut off analogy instead?
I had a friend who is a Purdue alum text me about how excited he is. **** me.
yep. no urgency now. so ****ing screwed, we are.so.****ing.screwed. anything that happens now with the big will be on their terms and at their own pace.
oregon getting rejected is not good. it leaves everyone hanging.

Agreed. The Oregon snub is bad news.

That clown, Howell, has us going anywhere from the Big 10 to the AFC West.
Translation: Screw you guys, we're getting paid.
It is nowhere near bad enough we have to switch to soccer....
CU is acting quickly, they have formed a committee to explore the utility of forming a subsequent committee to assess whether they should submit an application by 2028.
byu is still going to be a real problem for leadership at a lot of the remaining schools.
big 12 leftovers:
cinn
byu
isu
ku
ksu
osu
baylor
houston
tcu
tech
wvu
ucf
dead pac leftovers:
CU
utah
asu
ua
cal
stan
oregon
osu
uw
wsu
putting this collection together seems improbable at best and even if you add "good" g5 teams, so what?
i hate all this.

I find it enteresting that people on this site thought the PAC was such a great cultural fit years ago and how the Huskers made a mistake want to now get an invite to the BIG.
It is interesting you come over here to gloat about being the B1G doormat...tell us more.
EDIT: The NU English Dept. strikes again.

Maybe this will help the cobgobblers get their confidence up to think about applying to rejoin the AAU.

Just dropped in to see what condition your condition was in. Carry on.
I’m sure Nebraska leadership saw this all playing out like this twelve years ago.
He's going to freak. Losing those headliner programs significantly reduces the value of CU. There's a good chance this will reduce the frequency of his Nike swag gift baskets.
