Maybe I should be more specific. What will Notre Dame do as far as conferences for it's non-football sports and scheduling for football? Or does it give in and go to the Big 12? I just don't see them joining the B1G at this point.sleeper;1370941 wrote:The same thing they are doing now; getting blown out in games that matter.

Yeah it just doesn't make sense for a school in South Bend, IN to be in a conference with other midwestern schools. ND obviously thinks playing schools in the Mid Atlantic states hours away is such a good ideaFly4Fun;1370963 wrote:Maybe I should be more specific.

If Maryland can get out of the ACC with little to no exit fees, this could get interesting.

How is it not filed (either the ACC suit or Maryland's suit) in Federal court. I think Maryland has a case for breach of contract denying meetings if they are still in the conference.Jawbreaker;1373191 wrote:https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B_pWZMMfSW_FcmpicnAyY3VtdHM/view?sle=true

Looks like the Big East is getting close to a TV deal for football and basektball with NBC Sports. Teams would get $20 million a year. Would like to see that network take off and start to challenge ESPN.

Its 20 million total.... thats about 2 mil per school. That is god awful. UC has got to get an ACC or big 12 invite. They've won at least 10 games 5 out of the last 6 years. And what has that gotten them? 2 million? GtfoSonofanump;1388533 wrote:Pretty impressive for the old CUSA.

Fuck, I also misread, I thought it twas $20m per school. I guess $2m a school is appropriate for the BigLeast aka Cusa 2004.

Cincinnati needs to hit the Big 12 hard. Now that Louisville is no longer a partner option they'll need some other suitor to go with them. Not sure who that could be. UConn is too far east and is a mess. Not sure Texas and others want Houston back.

The guy that broke the story about Maryland joining the Big 10 just posted that North Carolina has been offered.

I don't like the addition of North Carolina. That's too far south for my liking.

UNC is a great program to add. Medicority in what? Football? Yeah maybe, even though they are a decent program . Hell of a basketball school. Great academics. Perfect fit.dlazz;1392325 wrote:Adding more mediocrity.

Agreed on the basketball and academics. That profile fits with the B1G. Might as well just offer Duke as well. Their football program only looks good because they play ACC teams.ohiobucks1;1392336 wrote:UNC is a great program to add. Medicority in what? Football?
