The Big 10 will not go for some kind

of ACC-style scheduling agreement with ND. They have no need to. Same with the SEC.

Misplaced Anger
I85Hokie 12/09/25 07:49 AM ET
ND is pissed at ESPN too
TerryD 12/09/25 07:52 AM ET
Short sighted. The damage to ND's reputation is not worth it.**

In fairness, don’t you agree that this faux anger is just awkward cover?
Tailgate Guru 12/09/25 08:11 AM ET
BTW, I have no anger/hatred and actually would prefer the status quo
TerryD 12/09/25 01:14 PM ET
And we appreciate your attitude
Tailgate Guru 12/09/25 01:17 PM ET
I think that the anger is real and visceral
TerryD 12/09/25 01:09 PM ET
I said "do", not "say"**
TerryD 12/09/25 01:15 PM ET
To the contrary, Bevacqua commented rashly, emotionally and foolishly **
Tailgate Guru 12/09/25 01:13 PM ET
This is pretty close to what I tried to less eloquently say last night

What? On what planet wouldn't they?
Baltimore_Hokie 12/09/25 10:19 AM ET
What I'm saying is the Big 10 won't go for the deal
mancunian 12/09/25 10:25 AM ET
Ah, OK. I misunderstood. I still think both P2's would want 4 games a year.
Baltimore_Hokie 12/09/25 10:30 AM ET
Quote from Bevacqua today that supports the "draw" part

Since the Big Ten and NBC are partnered up, it makes all the sense in the

I wasn't completely clear intially.
mancunian 12/09/25 10:41 AM ET
Agreed. P2 isn't taking the other sports without football.**
reestuart 12/09/25 10:27 AM ET
Yeah, but neither P2 has to. Has everyone forgotten about the Big East?
Baltimore_Hokie 12/09/25 10:32 AM ET
NBC wants content. And the B1G is a sucker for more money
Tailgate Guru 12/09/25 09:05 AM ET
ND has not financially supported basketball for forty five years
TerryD 12/09/25 01:07 PM ET
Precisely
Tailgate Guru 12/09/25 01:15 PM ET
People forget
TerryD 12/09/25 01:22 PM ET
The only plan they could have that would make sense would be dropping

Put hoops and non-revs in Big East
Tailgate Guru 12/09/25 10:01 AM ET
I think this is the correct answer. If they can ink a scheduling

There is a difference. Utah did not want out of the PAC, and when

All of the GOR agreements end at about the same time
Tailgate Guru 12/09/25 12:52 PM ET
No doubt about it, as I concur. The B12 is a patchwork
Big12 guy 12/09/25 01:29 PM ET
Texass is a conference killer.

My guess is Notre Dame's plan is to remain Independent in football and
VTHokie2000 12/09/25 09:52 AM ET
Agreed. I think this is cover/ammo for trying to break the GOR for nonrevs**

I have a new ND theory (for fun). FSU and a few others approached ND
HokieAl 12/09/25 08:22 AM ET
That may have been building behind the scenes for a while

Why stop at football when they can go after the whole ball of wax?**
