EDGEMAN • 03/13/25 08:34 AM ET
Why do people think that ND wants to be in the Big10?
mrcaniac • 03/13/25 01:05 PM ET
What I suspect will be the endgame for realignment
mancunian • 03/14/25 11:10 AM ET
Unless the "P2" gets an antitrust exemption from Congress

WRT to your statement "any team wanting to be a part of it will be able to"

NCAA's record in court is poor at best

Conversely, what if they concluded they'd make => money in the ACC
VT757to276 • 03/13/25 09:01 AM ET
ND has strongly disliked the Big Ten for 120 years
TerryD • 03/13/25 01:10 PM ET
I have very similar feelings about the ACC.**
hok1eboy • 03/14/25 06:05 PM ET
Are you suggesting that if Notre Dame was forced to pick a P2 conference
VTHokie2000 • 03/13/25 06:39 PM ET
If they had to pick a football conference today, would it not be the ACC?
seekoHoG • 03/14/25 08:05 PM ET
Not if the P2 ended up doing its own thing (think AFL-NFL type merger) and
VTHokie2000 • 03/14/25 08:25 PM ET

Wonder why they went in Hockey? With the hatred**
MrFantastic! • 03/14/25 10:26 AM ET
The hate is there when it suits them.**

Who cares about hockey in CR ?

For the record
TerryD • 03/14/25 12:01 PM ET
Your answer was my thinking
MrFantastic! • 03/15/25 09:24 AM ET
No, the Big Ten gave in
TerryD • 03/15/25 06:52 PM ET
ND gave in also
MrFantastic! • 03/16/25 04:53 AM ET
ND has turned down full Big Ten...

Only if they're forced to do it...**
EDGEMAN • 03/13/25 08:44 AM ET
I still don't understand why they haven't been forced

You are correct....

Wichita State is not a valid comparison to Notre Dame for simple fact that

You are missing my point. I am not comparing Wichita St To ND. I am

Even if that is the point you are trying to make, Wichita State is still

Miami was in the Big East....

Yes, that is 1 example. I will say that the decision may have had to do
VTHokie2000 • 03/14/25 08:07 PM ET
You tell me
TerryD • 03/15/25 06:32 AM ET
You make a fair point about Notre Dame's record against the ACC. However,
VTHokie2000 • 03/15/25 11:12 AM ET
AAC could have looked at Wichita St. and said, "you don't have football so

Schools don’t have to play them
MAGRIFF1 • 03/13/25 06:03 PM ET
Playoffs only include conference champions/runners up.
hokieZ71 • 03/13/25 01:08 PM ET
Those 3 conferences and the CFP will be writing a very large check to ND
mrcaniac • 03/13/25 02:22 PM ET
Exclude them from the playoffs.**
HokieNoVA • 03/13/25 12:34 PM ET
Legal? Anti-Trust violation ?
TerryD • 03/13/25 01:04 PM ET
May be?
mrcaniac • 03/13/25 01:14 PM ET
I was being diplomatic
TerryD • 03/13/25 02:28 PM ET
It may not be a violation of antitrust laws if the P2 conferences end up
VTHokie2000 • 03/13/25 06:46 PM ET
There are message board speculation and legal ramifications
mrcaniac • 03/13/25 02:36 PM ET
G5 schools aren't restricted from dropping down to the FCS.
hokieZ71 • 03/13/25 01:13 PM ET
Maybe, no idea.**
HokieNoVA • 03/13/25 01:06 PM ET
The SEC nor the ACC want them to join the B1G. So they don't mind keeping
Maroon Baboon • 03/13/25 09:54 AM ET
Ok, so its about keeping them out of the B10. That makes way more sense
