Jim ND Phillips will let ND out with no penalties, that’s the goal here!!!!

LOL it doesn’t take a 🔮 crystal ball to see where ND is going with these articles. The only question is whether the B1G and SEC will bow down to them, and play them in late October and November. USC-w said no, but how about the rest of the B1G and SEC? Maybe the lower tier in those two conferences will do it, and ND would certainly love that, to create an easier and more healthy route to the playoff.

Interesting ND article centering around the ACC and ND relationship**
goldendomer 02/06/26 05:26 PM ET
Just consider who's been saying this is exactly what's going to happen-

Lots of dumb **

This thread is funny.

Just a rehash of the same tired nonsense

The only thing I’ll disagree with

Big East is perfect for ND
Millpoint 02/08/26 09:45 AM ET
Perfect except for money. **
RandomAsianGuy 02/08/26 12:55 PM ET
ND will find a way
Millpoint 02/10/26 01:12 PM ET
Some would say even that is perfect for Notre Dame**
VTHokie2000 02/09/26 10:07 PM ET
Totally believable. But it just buttresses the argument that ND
Vippie1 02/07/26 11:53 AM ET
I think that ND is genuinely torqued at the ACC management
TerryD 02/07/26 12:01 PM ET
I think the ACC management is torqued at ND's moves since they joined
EDGEMAN 02/09/26 09:17 AM ET
ND could not possibly be that dumb, it’s not possible.**
Stech 02/07/26 05:26 PM ET
I'm sure ND is torqued, but agree, they shouldn't be.**
Atlee Hokie 02/07/26 01:23 PM ET
OK, so they're "genuinely torqued." So? If they think they're getting

Okay. I wish them the best of luck. I'm sure they'll do what they think

Stech 02/07/26 05:27 AM ET
SEC and B1G wont "bow" but money talks
Vippie1 02/07/26 04:44 PM ET
No worries with the BE deal
Vippie1 02/07/26 01:05 PM ET
I saw we hold ND to their word.**
EDGEMAN 02/07/26 09:41 AM ET
I'm sure ND is looking for an option. The SOS is a real concern.
RandomAsianGuy 02/06/26 11:28 PM ET
SOS isn't a concern for ND
EDGEMAN 02/07/26 11:47 AM ET
It's not all about playoff access.
RandomAsianGuy 02/07/26 12:55 PM ET
That is a better argument in years when they beat all of us.**
Truthahn 02/08/26 05:13 PM ET
They only play a handful of games against ACC teams. Why aren't they...
EDGEMAN 02/07/26 01:04 PM ET
6 ACC games a year now
TerryD 02/07/26 01:41 PM ET
I am with you. My point is ND is trying to get out because of SOS and
RandomAsianGuy 02/07/26 01:13 PM ET
So they want their own refs. Who do they think they are, the

That is a student reporter at the school newspaper

That small blurb in The Athletic should not have prompted such a robust

Who is the B10 reporter? Do you count Flug as a reporter?**
RandomAsianGuy 02/07/26 12:58 PM ET
No, it was an Iowa beat reporter

Please leave.**
Atlee Hokie 02/06/26 07:20 PM ET
Yeah…whatever. The ACC will be fine regardless.**

Isn't that what ACC fans have wanted/still want?
TerryD 02/07/26 12:04 PM ET
No beef from me.**

Can't speak for all ACC fans. I'm "meh" on ND one way or the

I'm definitely not "meh" WRT ND. I despise them as an athletic ...
Atlee Hokie 02/07/26 12:50 PM ET
ND should do it...
2hhoop3 02/06/26 06:00 PM ET
Yeah. And if they get a partial deal with either of the P2, does ND think
Maroon Baboon 02/06/26 08:02 PM ET
Neither one of the P2......
2hhoop3 02/06/26 08:16 PM ET
The SEC is adding a 9th conference game, and there is talk of a scheduling
Maroon Baboon 02/06/26 08:28 PM ET
The SEC specifically named ND as an option......
TerryD 02/07/26 08:06 AM ET
This is exactly right. SEC and B1G both have much at stake if ND makes any
33laszlo99 02/07/26 11:07 AM ET
Stable "LaGrange Point"
TerryD 02/07/26 11:42 AM ET
ND writer assumes the SEC and B1G want to enter a scheduling agreement w/ND
Maroon Baboon 02/06/26 05:52 PM ET
Notre Dame can kiss me squarely on my butt.**
Atlee Hokie 02/06/26 10:26 PM ET
Interestingly, Flug is talking about this right now
TerryD 02/06/26 06:16 PM ET
Yes. I think it’s credible that ND would want a partial deal with B10/SEC.
RandomAsianGuy 02/06/26 11:32 PM ET
That is not what Flugaur is saying
TerryD 02/07/26 07:02 AM ET
I know what he said. But
RandomAsianGuy 02/07/26 12:54 PM ET
No problem with partial membership
TerryD 02/07/26 01:43 PM ET
Technically ND can stay with the ACC and do a 5 game schedule with the B10.
RandomAsianGuy 02/07/26 03:13 PM ET
I'll give a listen. There is rumblings happening **
