Not worried about it

ND would join the Big East for other sports and cut scheduling deals for football or it would cut a deal with the Big 12. There will always be an accommodation made for an independent ND. Why? Because the networks and other power brokers want ND involved and do not really care that ND isn't in a conference. ND occupies a stable gravitational Lagrange point between the conferences. ** Edited by TerryD at 11/20/2024, 2:11:54 PM

Serious question as 2why this now, are they worried about teams opting out?
Stech • 11/19/24 01:11 PM ET
I mentioned all of this two years ago
TerryD • 11/20/24 10:22 AM ET

Truths and truisms are easy to spot. :)

It's not even spin anymore. It's preemptive justification

That’s it, they’re bragging about it instead of hiding Unprofessional 🤼

Yep & next they take their automatic bids 4 Conf Champs & G6 highest away!
Stech • 11/19/24 01:21 PM ET
I'm not sure I don't disagree with that ...

Another step to ending Conf Champ games and going to 16 team playoff of P2
