Its independence

That is the fatal problem for ND/ACC further involvement. That is what is most important to ND, other than being able to qualify for the playoffs. There are places where the interests of the ACC and ND intersect. That led and to and could lead to certain arrangements. The big issue, as always, is that ND is adamant about staying a football independent. That is where the mutual road forks. The two entities go their separate ways from that point. Its hard to see any areas of further involvement with each other because of that. ** Edited by TerryD at 2/5/2023, 8:47:38 PM

I still believe something will get worked out for them to leave in 2024**

Now the B12 should hand them a league schedule with only each other for

I have read that Texas & Oklahoma both still attend Big 12 meetings

No "reducing" a GOR
TerryD • 02/07/23 09:37 AM ET
I guess we need an Attorney

An exit fee is very different from a Grant of Rights.
tarheelblue • 02/07/23 02:53 PM ET
Well stated**

Not surprising at all, the TV Networks that are writing the checks are

TerryD • 02/05/23 08:42 PM ET
Maybe there could be shared interest in ND access to the ACC championship?
Truthahn • 02/06/23 12:55 PM ET
No idea, but my guess is ND would not be interested in schemes like this
TerryD • 02/07/23 09:45 AM ET
Bleh...no ACC championship to a non member...ever**
RTFC • 02/06/23 09:22 PM ET
ESPN does not want the world to see how easily a GoR can be cracked open
33laszlo99 • 02/03/23 08:33 PM ET
That would be nice, ESPN has earned it !**
FLKEYSHOKIE • 02/03/23 06:56 PM ET
But so has Fox. They use the same cutthroat tactics.**

Totally agree !**
FLKEYSHOKIE • 02/04/23 04:14 PM ET
Just in case anyone thinks it will be easy to get out of the ACC before '36

Here's exactly what the Conference could do now...revise Bylaw 2.10.9
daveinop • 02/06/23 10:42 AM ET
How do you separate.....
2hhoop3 • 02/06/23 02:38 PM ET
I'm admittedly taking a leap of faith
daveinop • 02/08/23 04:10 PM ET
Who has suiters at this point?
VTCALS72 • 02/04/23 03:00 PM ET
It takes 8 votes to nul the Grant of Rights
Mercury • 02/03/23 09:21 PM ET
I've heard 8 is the magic number
ren_hoek • 02/05/23 09:06 AM ET
it isn't
daveinop • 02/05/23 05:28 PM ET
Whether it takes 8 or 12 votes to get out of the GoR, it's never happening.
tarheelblue • 02/07/23 03:28 PM ET
but hasn't it been repeated on the internet enough to be true???**
ren_hoek • 02/06/23 01:03 PM ET
that's a good point**

I don’t think the Big Ten wants anyone other than ND, and UNC is probably

MrFantastic! • 02/06/23 04:38 AM ET
And those 2 schools don't really want to be in the B1G.
tarheelblue • 02/04/23 01:36 PM ET
The fact that the B1G only took TWO Pac-12 teams leads me to think that

Future of the ACC
Arch72Hokie • 02/04/23 10:42 PM ET
Basketball doesn't matter that much regarding TV and realignment
TerryD • 02/05/23 12:43 AM ET
For now, yes
ren_hoek • 02/05/23 09:10 AM ET
Very well. Now how do you explain Kansas being left behind?
Maroon Baboon • 02/05/23 12:20 AM ET
That and time...**
EDGEMAN • 02/04/23 08:29 AM ET
ACC football had a lot of good coaches age out, just like basketball now,

I think it is too early to determine how good Scheyer will be.

I agree it’s too early, my point is the turnover of iconic coaches creates

Never say never, but...

Highest level of the fight is @ th TV Network level, ESPN benefits, not Fox
Stech • 02/03/23 02:08 PM ET
Guess they did a cost benefit analysis to make that decision**
