Notre Dame/ACC/B12 Question
The_VT_Rock • 08/04/25 01:03 PM ET
I heard that ND signed a contract if they joined in 🏈, it would be the ACC
Stech • 08/04/25 03:47 PM ET
I wonder that changed with the change in rights package last time
1947Sunbowl • 08/05/25 09:03 AM ET
I read or heard somewhere that there is a buyout for ND, but it isn't as
Maroon Baboon • 08/04/25 05:55 PM ET
Notre Dame's buyout would be much less because
wwhokie1 • 08/05/25 10:28 AM ET
The contract is supposed to be through the 2036-37 academic year
mrcaniac • 08/04/25 04:29 PM ET
If everyone can get out you better believe ND has an out if needed.
goldendomer • 08/04/25 04:29 PM ET
Big 10, but I would not use the word preferred, more like forced.**
goldendomer • 08/04/25 02:02 PM ET
So if ND was forced to join the Big Ten

Likely Stanford because for some dumb reason we love them. **
goldendomer • 08/05/25 10:39 AM ET
If they go beyond 20, who else?
Millpoint • 08/05/25 11:43 AM ET
My guess we will literally drag Cal with us.. But Stanford is a school we

In a 24 team B1G, I see ND/Stanford joining the USC/UCLA/ORE/WA division.
hokieZ71 • 08/05/25 11:28 AM ET
If given the choice, you don't think ND would prefer to be in the East
VTHokie2000 • 08/05/25 11:35 AM ET
Wouldn’t completely surprise me “if” ND joined a Conference, it’s the SEC.
Stech • 08/04/25 06:14 PM ET
ND is not making an athletics move based on "academic conference"
Pylons • 08/05/25 11:00 AM ET
That’s not what Father Jenkins said when they joined the ACC for 5 🏈 games
Stech • 08/05/25 05:18 PM ET
We have a new president and he is much more aggressive with the football
goldendomer • 08/05/25 06:38 PM ET
Point is Academics still matter to ND & the Conference they choose to join,
Stech • 08/05/25 08:26 PM ET
Yes, they (presidents/chancellors) say it for a reason.
Pylons • 08/06/25 10:16 AM ET
I agree with you it has little effect on Academics and I agree it can be

Snobbery exists in every slice of life.
Pylons • 08/06/25 07:46 PM ET
Necessary lip service. The charade that athletics somehow has
Pylons • 08/05/25 06:30 PM ET
I think they would stay independent, and ink long term football
Big12 guy • 08/04/25 02:30 PM ET
The Big 12 would not really be won't we're looking for in terms of match-up
goldendomer • 08/04/25 02:34 PM ET
I agree 100%. Money however, could talk a bit louder. Football however,
Big12 guy • 08/04/25 02:45 PM ET
If it is a hybrid Big/12 with a 3 game commitment than ND likely would be
goldendomer • 08/04/25 02:53 PM ET
I agree with this as well. ND has established what their
Big12 guy • 08/04/25 03:27 PM ET
If the P2 ever decide to do their own thing (including scheduling) and ND

It will come down to access to the national championship - period. **
Big12 guy • 08/05/25 12:16 PM ET
Which national championship though? Currently DI football has 2 national
