You don't want any of this, I get it. As far as VT and ACC yes we would

Has anybody really done the math?
PaNDalum 01/25/22 04:17 PM ET
Great questions, I would love to know the answers.**

Tech plays Notre Dame more than every football team in the ACC Atlantic...
Old Line Hokie 01/25/22 07:21 PM ET
They are just another football team.

ND isn't going to join a G5 conference. It will be the B1X
EDGEMAN 01/26/22 07:14 AM ET
Even if the Big Ten and SEC decide to treat the all athletes as employees?**
VTHokie2000 01/26/22 08:41 PM ET
Exactly, though I can see the SEC and B1G doing that and ND
RTFC 01/26/22 09:37 PM ET
The "moral grounds" is an interesting position for Notre Dame to take
VTHokie2000 01/26/22 09:53 PM ET
So, God doesn't like football independents?
TerryD 01/27/22 03:59 PM ET
I can't say what God does or doesn't like. Plus, I wouldn't assume
VTHokie2000 01/27/22 10:09 PM ET
Really thorough post... **
goldendomer 01/27/22 11:12 PM ET
Thanks. Like I have noted in a previous post, I don't have a problem
VTHokie2000 01/27/22 11:48 PM ET
The points you make are a struggle for me personally.
goldendomer 01/28/22 10:12 AM ET
I agree with the competing interest, we all have them, but usually survival
Stech 01/28/22 07:37 AM ET
I doubt ND would want the auto bid by adding Navy plus one

Stech 01/29/22 11:01 AM ET
It would merely cause more anti-ND resentment...
TerryD 01/29/22 11:58 AM ET
ACC wants to play you more, would be a move in the right direction for ACC.

Side-note, our endowment leapt 7 billion that past year.
goldendomer 01/28/22 10:11 AM ET
Yes, I would agree with you that large of an endowment is insane

And yet Notre Dame made the decision to join a conference for all
VTHokie2000 01/27/22 10:21 PM ET
Special dispensation- :)**
goldendomer 01/27/22 11:10 PM ET
Interesting choice of words :-)**
VTHokie2000 01/27/22 11:14 PM ET
Agree with all of that, precisely my point.**
RTFC 01/26/22 10:08 PM ET
The math is a guess. In general it would add more games
goldendomer 01/25/22 07:04 PM ET
ACC would also get whatever the updated market value is
daveinop 01/27/22 02:45 PM ET
I feel like ESPN/ABC picking up that SEC piece from CBS and adding OU/TU
reestuart 01/25/22 04:54 PM ET
No ACC product to the ACC Network and RSN
Mercury 01/25/22 05:35 PM ET
Yep. If the Big Ten doesn't move completely from ESPN/ABC, even the noon
