The PAC is gone, and it appears that some sports

may be dropped. It's not like the ACC has hockey, so in those sports that are not sponsored, there is precedent that affiliation could still remain with the ACC. Oklahoma wrestling would be a good example, as they continue to be affiliated with the B12.

Pete Bevacqua interview on the ACC Notre Dame relationship**
goldendomer • 12/08/25 10:42 AM ET
It doesn't become ND to be a whinny little brat.**
Atlee Hokie • 12/08/25 07:51 PM ET
I understand Notre Dame's AD's frustration, but....
Old Line Hokie • 12/08/25 04:46 PM ET
The fact is, ND didn't beat ANY really good teams except overrated Navy**
MDHokie79 • 12/08/25 03:05 PM ET
If the ACC was against ND over Miami, then the media also played a big part
IB4TECH • 12/08/25 01:54 PM ET
Like I said yesterday.......
2hhoop3 • 12/08/25 01:32 PM ET
Did you or anyone ever think differently? **
Big12 guy • 12/08/25 01:41 PM ET
Aside from the Kelly years, I've always liked ND, and I've also not really
reestuart • 12/08/25 01:56 PM ET
Yes......
2hhoop3 • 12/08/25 01:43 PM ET
OK, when I was a kid, maybe I thought differently as well. **
Big12 guy • 12/08/25 01:46 PM ET
Have you ever really......
2hhoop3 • 12/08/25 01:49 PM ET
Ouch**
Big12 guy • 12/08/25 02:07 PM ET
Disingenuous to pin this on the ACC
Vippie1 • 12/08/25 01:15 PM ET
I don't think the ACC did anything wrong at all. I'm surprised they did it.**
reestuart • 12/08/25 01:25 PM ET
I just sent him boxes of Pop Tarts and tissues via Amazon
Tailgate Guru • 12/08/25 01:03 PM ET
First Thought Why Pop Tarts? Then I realized that's the new name for Bowl.
HOO86 • 12/08/25 01:28 PM ET
Bevacqua mentioned it in his rant **
Tailgate Guru • 12/08/25 01:48 PM ET
Hope they enjoy the prestige of all their sports sans football
Vippie1 • 12/08/25 01:22 PM ET
First, any B12 schedule is better than the schools in your post. Second,
Big12 guy • 12/08/25 02:52 PM ET
Obviously ND AD is mad.
RandomAsianGuy • 12/08/25 12:33 PM ET
maybe he and Kraft at PSU, can cry on each other's shoulders.]**
1947Sunbowl • 12/08/25 01:44 PM ET
ND ready to go to the Big 10?**
Stech • 12/08/25 11:28 AM ET
That’s what I was wondering. Their outrage is misplaced. **
reestuart • 12/08/25 11:44 AM ET
The nice comments about Bama cracked me up, they screwed them not Miami,
Stech • 12/08/25 11:47 AM ET
He should have called out ESPN/CFP. ESPN owns the CFP and the SEC. That's
reestuart • 12/08/25 12:16 PM ET
He probably wants Commissioner fired or they will leave or both, I am fine
Stech • 12/08/25 12:23 PM ET
I have always thought the arrangement was a net positive for the ACC, but
reestuart • 12/08/25 12:27 PM ET
ND doesn't need a partnership with the B12, BIG,
Big12 guy • 12/08/25 01:04 PM ET
Big East would likely work for non-football, but they already did that
reestuart • 12/08/25 01:24 PM ET
The PAC is gone, and it appears that some sports ◄
Big12 guy • 12/08/25 01:35 PM ET
FWIW the Pac-12 will resume operates as a functioning athletic conference
VTHokie2000 • 12/08/25 02:03 PM ET
LOL! WTF? He can kiss off. What a bunch of babies. **
reestuart • 12/08/25 11:27 AM ET
The bloom is off that turd which is Notre Dame.**
manassashoo • 12/08/25 11:21 AM ET
I admire your gift for imagery.**
33laszlo99 • 12/08/25 12:35 PM ET
It's so enjoyable watching ND act like a petulant 10 YO. Taking your ball
drb • 12/08/25 11:20 AM ET
This is from the Athletic
mancunian • 12/08/25 11:17 AM ET
ND is welcome to take their olympic shorts elsewhere, to hell with them.**
HokieNoVA • 12/08/25 11:03 AM ET
I don't get it. having ND associated with the ACC
Big12 guy • 12/08/25 11:09 AM ET
What Texas did to the B12 by having their own TV contract, very divisive to
Stech • 12/08/25 11:58 AM ET
They were convinced by a person on this board that we were coming in
goldendomer • 12/08/25 11:17 AM ET
Right many in ACC voted yes, they thought they would join full time 🏈, but
Stech • 12/08/25 12:18 PM ET
The do not have to partner with a conference. It's that simple. **
Big12 guy • 12/08/25 12:41 PM ET
Good luck trying to make the NCAA Tournaments in basketball as an
VTHokie2000 • 12/08/25 01:25 PM ET
goodluck making it as a member of ACC they are terrible and no one goes**
AnotherTechW • 12/08/25 01:38 PM ET
Huh? The ACC receives an automatic bid to both NCAA Tournaments in
VTHokie2000 • 12/08/25 01:52 PM ET
My bad. Let me rephrase. They do not have
Big12 guy • 12/08/25 01:36 PM ET
Don’t worry looks like we’re looking to do just that. And then the ACC will
goldendomer • 12/08/25 11:09 AM ET
I think we're resolved that blowing up is happening with or without ND
daveinop • 12/08/25 04:05 PM ET
I don't think pulling your basketball team and other non-football matter.
reestuart • 12/08/25 03:07 PM ET
First? LOL - already in process - you'll want to claim that as well...**
RTFC • 12/08/25 03:06 PM ET
LOL, the ACC has been dead man walking since they panic added SMU/CalFord.
Baltimore_Hokie • 12/08/25 12:31 PM ET
No lawsuit needed. **
Big12 guy • 12/08/25 11:10 AM ET
ACC should merge with the Big East and refuse to schedule ND in any sport
Sunsetunderground • 12/08/25 10:53 AM ET
No. I'd rather merge with the Big XII than the Big East
HOO86 • 12/08/25 11:30 AM ET
Since the ACC's blood bleeds round ball instead of oval ball, the merger
VTHokie2000 • 12/08/25 12:21 PM ET
I guess, but since we started this mission of Nationwide
HOO86 • 12/08/25 12:27 PM ET
You can polish a turd and it will still be a turd. My point is the ACC
VTHokie2000 • 12/08/25 12:41 PM ET
U mean Miami fans won’t travel from South Beach to Hard Rock stadium right?
Stech • 12/08/25 12:56 PM ET
Hence why I said South Beach and not Miami ;-)**
VTHokie2000 • 12/08/25 01:00 PM ET
Merging with the Big East would essentially lock out Notre Dame in the East
Sunsetunderground • 12/08/25 11:45 AM ET
Perhaps. But I don't want anyone to join that doesn't want to join.
HOO86 • 12/08/25 11:55 AM ET
ND needs to leave your conference. **
Big12 guy • 12/08/25 11:04 AM ET
We are laying the groundwork for just that**
goldendomer • 12/08/25 11:06 AM ET
A lot of Big East schools want to merge with the ACC, might be a stand off.**
Stech • 12/08/25 11:44 AM ET
If there is some sort of Big East/ACC merger, it will
Big12 guy • 12/08/25 11:58 AM ET
Hello big 12**

RTFC • 12/08/25 02:59 PM ET
Enjoy Waco and Provo. Be sure to pack your beads. **
Tailgate Guru • 12/08/25 01:09 PM ET
LOL!**
RandomAsianGuy • 12/08/25 12:30 PM ET
Or a new ACC Commissioner, if that happens 👏👏👏**
Stech • 12/08/25 11:50 AM ET
I don't think that will happen, but a lot of strange things
