I would add UNC to that list, but yes.

I find it hard to believe that they'd leave Arizona State, Oregon and UW out of the big time. I tend to think that the B1G is going to still invite UO and UW. But for some reason, they just want to go to 18 now for either ND and Stanford OR Oregon and Washington. I think this is small thinking, but it's not my money. And even if I'm right, the fact that the B1G is keeping UO and UW twisting in the wind is criminal. And if the B1G is going to turn its nose up at non-AAU ASU, that's fine. But I think the SEC should be looking at them.

Status quo wins for now

Which means ND is ready to make the jump to the B1X any day now...lol**
EDGEMAN • 07/10/22 07:31 AM ET
Thanks. I figured you guys weren't that motivated either.
TDVick • 07/09/22 11:25 AM ET
Thanks for the ND point of view, if the basketball breaks off like football
Stech • 07/09/22 10:16 AM ET
The issue for the ACC is no matter what
goldendomer • 07/09/22 10:52 AM ET
But who cares?
SpeakToDamien • 07/09/22 05:21 PM ET
Could be, since we had two in playoff in 2020 (*ND was a member), if 🏀
Stech • 07/09/22 01:58 PM ET
and that a significant % of the membership produces no football revenue**
daveinop • 07/09/22 11:53 AM ET
Not sure this is about ND
MrFantastic! • 07/09/22 05:51 AM ET
When do the universities say "Enough is enough" and that ...

NokieHokie • 07/09/22 10:50 AM ET
You can laugh, but D-2 and D-3 have it right.**
Old Line Hokie • 07/09/22 10:58 AM ET
I agree, but I'm laughing at your first sentence only...**
NokieHokie • 07/09/22 01:12 PM ET
Yeah, the whole thing is laughable to the point it makes you depressed. ;)**
Old Line Hokie • 07/09/22 01:34 PM ET
I think you are correct, and I think it would be interesting...
Gobbler Guru • 07/09/22 11:27 AM ET
I live 30 minutes from Hampden-Sydney College...
Old Line Hokie • 07/09/22 12:03 PM ET
I've been to a few of those games...nice experience**
Tuckahokie • 07/09/22 05:28 PM ET
Who could the ACC expand with that will actually increase its value?**
NokieHokie • 07/09/22 09:33 AM ET
the 4 PAC schools
daveinop • 07/09/22 11:48 AM ET
But they won't add value. **
133743Hokie • 07/09/22 02:05 PM ET
If you don’t think UW and Oregon would add value, you’re on a diff planet
marcbvtgm • 07/09/22 04:31 PM ET
The PAC12 contract pays less than the ACC contract, and that's before they
133743Hokie • 07/09/22 06:00 PM ET
It’s because Larry Scott is an idiot, not that UW, OU, etc don’t have value
marcbvtgm • 07/09/22 10:23 PM ET
I would add UNC to that list, but yes. ◄
Maroon Baboon • 07/10/22 01:59 AM ET
This is about GOR purgatory, not ND
Maroon Unit • 07/09/22 07:24 AM ET
Schools joing have to sign on to the GOR as a condition of membetship**
133743Hokie • 07/09/22 06:01 PM ET
If the GOR staves this off for a while, Tech needs to do everything
dallasvt • 07/09/22 12:12 PM ET
Wouldn’t a merger w/ PAC 10 keep GOR intact and also add value?
hokieZ71 • 07/09/22 10:04 AM ET
PAC wishes they had a GOR like the ACC **
133743Hokie • 07/09/22 06:02 PM ET
You're right.....
2hhoop3 • 07/09/22 06:15 PM ET
No. **
133743Hokie • 07/09/22 02:06 PM ET
Probably yes.
vtka93 • 07/09/22 10:55 AM ET
Not sure which Hoo Lawyer wrote the GOR...but that thing is tight!!!**
Tuckahokie • 07/09/22 09:18 AM ET
Per 2013 agreement, adding schools does not void. They must sign on.
Concord Dan • 07/09/22 08:57 AM ET
Why would anybody sign on? (Unless payout is increased)
hokieZ71 • 07/09/22 10:11 AM ET
They wouldn't
vtka93 • 07/09/22 11:02 AM ET
Do you have proof that adding teams voids the GOR? I’m not saying you’re
Stech • 07/09/22 08:42 AM ET
It doesn't. Adding teams typically triggers a revision of the media deal
daveinop • 07/09/22 10:02 AM ET
They aren't going to change the equitable distribution model and fracture
133743Hokie • 07/09/22 02:09 PM ET
The above
MrFantastic! • 07/09/22 05:57 AM ET
I think in the short term we will see
goldendomer • 07/09/22 06:26 AM ET
Any chance the ACC tries to align with desireable PAC schools?
hokieZ71 • 07/09/22 07:56 AM ET
I think the GOR for FSU, Clem and VT
