Tell ND the ACC will add Stanford and Cal if they join too.

If ND is so concerned about their buddies being left out then they have the power to get them included. The ACC would likely agree to add Cal and Stanford if ND agreed to join in full. We know though that ND prizes its independence at the expense of everything and everybody so anything they say is worth squat.

I agree the whole Swarbrick fiasco was very tone deaf and hypocritical. But

Are you talking about the negotiations between Jack Swarbrick,
WBGV 08/11/23 05:00 PM ET
At this point, every statement being made is posturing for something
Vienna_Hokie 08/11/23 11:08 AM ET
Yep, I have negotiated both sports & business agreements, so much posturing
Stech 08/11/23 11:24 AM ET
You nailed it on the last line why IMHO they won't add a 6th game, but
Stech 08/11/23 10:43 AM ET
I agree. Thankfully the ACC teams have finally woken up! Yeah!!!**

They have a home. They should keep it going
HokieAl 08/11/23 09:47 AM ET
Maybe if the Pac-4 do as you say, why not invite a few FCS schools looking
Maroon Baboon 08/11/23 12:26 PM ET
By NCAA rules, they would need to add either 3 or 4 teams by 2024.
Atlee Hokie 08/11/23 12:24 PM ET
I think it's six teams. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
Maroon Baboon 08/11/23 12:35 PM ET
I know it used to be six teams, and probably still is.**

I would totally watch Oregon State at Montana (bucket list stadium)**

While you in that neck of the woods, pick up the Kibbie Dome. **

Well, if ND we’re actually in a conference for football…

If they were keeping a spot open for Stanford and Cal, why not take them
wwhokie1 08/11/23 09:57 AM ET
Bingo. Keeping schools on the back burner hurts the back burner school.
Maroon Baboon 08/11/23 12:10 PM ET
Precisely, why diminish their value if you have plans to add them?
obguthr 08/11/23 10:14 AM ET
Sometimes the conference needs to take a desirable team when the team is

1) OSU-nw & WSU should just apply to MWC and get it over with,

Would also prefer Oregon State and Wazzu if all other things were equal
Maroon Baboon 08/11/23 02:54 PM ET
There should be zero concessions made to FSU. Even if the ACC someshow

Yep, FSU has always had an enormous ego.
