$4 MILLION FOR MIAMI

Join a conference or shut up.

Why? I personally like that ND is not in a conference. Conferences are limiting. ND can play all over the country. If teams could get away with it, I am sure everyone would do so. It helps with recruiting, for sure. Granted, playing in a conference would definitely be an easier path to the playoffs. I actually think today pushed ND way further away from joining a conference than they were before.

This is right from CFP website

  1. A conference will receive $4 million for each team that makes the College Football Playoff (12 schools) and each team that advances to the Playoff Quarterfinals (eight schools).
  2. A conference will receive $6 million for each team that advances to a Playoff Semifinal (four schools) and each team that advances to the national championship game (two schools).
  3. Each conference whose team participates in the College Football Playoff will receive $3 million to cover expenses for each round.

Being independent is not the same as being an independent when Miami was an independent or a whole bunch of other schools.

It’s not a sustainable model for anyone except ND and what you get is at most 2 good games and some years 3 and the rest is filled with bad teams from the ACC or other conferences.

It does nothing for your other sports outside of football.

Do you think if ND totally broke it's agreement with the ACC, and with the P4 all going to 9 conference games, that ND will be able to schedule a full quality 10+ P4 games a year?

Stop the bull****.

"Conferences are limiting". Except when ND doesn't like the "limitations" of the SEC advocating for SEC teams or the ACC advocating for ACC teams. When THAT happens, it's "permanently damaging" to Notre Dame.

As for "ND can play all over the country", you can certainly do that in the Big 10. Particularly if the Big 10 invites a few teams from the southeast, such as Miami and Georgia Tech.

And the claim that "today pushed ND way futher away from joining a conference" is just a flat-out lie. The ONLY thing that pushed ND away from joining a conference is the agreement that ND signed to be included in the CFP if they finish in the Top 12. That is the ONLY thing securing ND's future.

New revenue equation for ACC schools: More wins + more viewers = more money

After decades of equal revenue distribution, the ACC will give schools that have more success and drive more television viewership a greater share of the league’s money.

Play all over the country, but you're playing 3 true road games (Purdue, Syracuse, and and UNC) next season and a neutral site game in WI.

Your schedule is trash again. Outside of Miami you play a ran through Lincoln Riley squad and the same SMU program your fan base said was terrible.

Break your arrangement with the ACC and your schedules will consist of UTSA, Sam Houston St, and Sac. St.
