Agreed! I didn't say it was a good idea ;-) I just said that was the only

way I could see a ND/ACC full membership

Crazy idea, but...
Victor Tango 08/12/22 11:03 AM ET
ND seems to be partnering with the B1G & NBC for TV, that's probably done.

What do you mean by basketball breaking away
Vippie1 08/12/22 04:22 PM ET
I mean no NCAA taking a Billion dollars from basketball mainly from the

Scratch this post based on if AirborneHokie96's post is correct, seems
Stech 08/12/22 04:15 PM ET
The ONLY scenario where I could see ND as a full member of the ACC is
133193Hokie 08/12/22 01:45 PM ET
I would imagine that would pi$$ off the other members of the ACC, and
VPI_1998 08/12/22 02:24 PM ET
Pretty much.**

133193Hokie 08/12/22 02:42 PM ET
ND will never be in ACC football
MrFantastic! 08/12/22 01:46 PM ET
That is why I said I dont see this ever happening ;-)**
133193Hokie 08/12/22 02:02 PM ET
ND is going to want an exclusive national slot on ABC. The SEC isn't
reestuart 08/12/22 01:31 PM ET
ND will join the BIG and it'll happen right soon
HokieToph 08/12/22 01:18 PM ET
You would think that USC would have negotiated the preservation of the ND
Maroon Baboon 08/12/22 09:19 PM ET
I don't think that USC negotiated anything. I think both CA schools are
HokieToph 08/13/22 10:29 PM ET
ND is going Big 10. Probably in 2025 but maybe earlier.**
AirborneHokie96 08/12/22 12:53 PM ET
How do you know this?**
Stech 08/12/22 02:50 PM ET
I go to Mass in Indiana
AirborneHokie96 08/12/22 02:59 PM ET
I was there in 2019. Asked a young priest standing there….
hokie4ever 08/12/22 03:34 PM ET
Man...that was a windy game.
AirborneHokie96 08/12/22 03:47 PM ET
Also, any word on who they will take with them?**
Stech 08/12/22 03:11 PM ET
My guess is Stanford.
EDGEMAN 08/12/22 03:31 PM ET
Me too, possibly Oregon and Washington too.**
Stech 08/12/22 04:11 PM ET
No. That really wasn't part of their discussions as all from what I gather
AirborneHokie96 08/12/22 03:23 PM ET
Makes so much sense. Have them play USC & UCLA away in alternating
reestuart 08/12/22 08:18 PM ET
any word if it would be full BIG membership or just ND football joining?**
HokieAl 08/12/22 04:16 PM ET
Full B10 membership**
AirborneHokie96 08/12/22 04:44 PM ET
Thanks for the info, I have to believe it'll be Stanford or maybe more PAC
Stech 08/12/22 04:09 PM ET
Interesting, thanks for letting me know why you think it is happening.**
Stech 08/12/22 03:10 PM ET
We were at Notre Dame for an unofficial visit with our daughter a few
AirborneHokie96 08/12/22 03:24 PM ET
Cool, I grew a Notre Dame fan, until I went to Virginia Tech and went VT!**
Stech 08/12/22 04:06 PM ET
Would not bet my life on that notion!**
MrFantastic! 08/12/22 01:18 PM ET
I can see them staying indie, only cause last place network will want them**
MrBayAreaHokie 08/12/22 01:34 PM ET
Boosters have already given the administration the OK to go to Big 10**
AirborneHokie96 08/12/22 03:00 PM ET
Personally, I am sick of ND and their attitude..they can rot**
MrBayAreaHokie 08/12/22 12:30 PM ET
I have said this before and I will reiterate it here
CobbCountyHokie 08/12/22 11:47 AM ET
Pretty sure I remember John Swofford saying the same thing...
MP4VT2004 08/12/22 09:41 PM ET
So, we made a few extra bucks and had the "honor" of playing Notre Dame.
Maroon Baboon 08/12/22 01:35 PM ET
It helped kick the can down the street a few mores years
Vippie1 08/12/22 04:14 PM ET
It’s never a good idea to have the BE as a strategic template.
mancunian 08/12/22 03:56 PM ET
well i'll say this much
Vippie1 08/12/22 12:47 PM ET
VT has a greater chance of going independent than ND joining the ACC in FB
OrlandoHokie 08/12/22 12:31 PM ET
I agree but ACC affiliation(as is now) can save their INDY.
MrFantastic! 08/12/22 01:21 PM ET
As a fan, I agree
Victor Tango 08/12/22 12:27 PM ET
I was surprised Swarbrick stated it so bluntly
goldendomer 08/12/22 12:49 PM ET
Surprised AND disappointed
PaNDalum 08/12/22 01:55 PM ET
That interview and I struggle to call it that was just
goldendomer 08/12/22 02:12 PM ET
I think your comment re: one more indy
daveinop 08/12/22 02:54 PM ET
What is congress going to do?
Red Hokie 08/13/22 07:03 AM ET
Force? No.
daveinop 08/13/22 09:53 AM ET
Agreed **
PaNDalum 08/12/22 02:31 PM ET
What message is that?
MrFantastic! 08/12/22 02:30 PM ET
Before USC was admitted I was a firm never.
goldendomer 08/12/22 02:37 PM ET
Thanks for answer why..
MrFantastic! 08/12/22 02:38 PM ET
My guess is USC demanded UCLA
goldendomer 08/12/22 06:02 PM ET
Agreed.**
