No need to do so. Big 12, at worst, is on par with the ACC in the new P4.UCF and Cincy just got into the big 12 and begin their first season. doubt they'd bounce now

What people have said at every phase of realignment.Money eventually corrupts everything, and it’s happening to college football right before our very eyes. For most of our lives, college football was one of the only, maybe the only “pure” sport we had left. Regional identities, rivalries, school pride, are all being thrown out like yesterday’s trash. I guess it was inevitable, and I think the only thing that surprises me is how quickly this happened.
lol this idea is just as silly as the one you quoted...neither the BIG or SEC is going to do anything to help ND stay independent.Clown post of the entire thread. Yeah ... ND is going to join full time. They have NO NEED to do anything but support the dissolution of the ACC so they have all of their game scheduling rights back and then their media partners set up MAJOR scheduling deals with BOTH the B10 and SEC. That way they can make more than being a member of either of the B2 conferences. 5 games with each, and 2 games for traditional rivalries. Done.
Rent, property tax, ridiculous homeowners insurance.Reasons why that is happening?

The way it's looking, either they find a conference or good luck filling a schedule worthy of a top 12 playoff spot
Nope Australia was actually a good play in that game PAC-12 wishes it could be Australia.
They are still a conference.I must be missing something re: the Bigly 12. What card do they hold?
Looking more to me like the ACC is not gonna implode, even if FSU were somehow to leave.That only comes into play if the ACC implodes. They have no problem getting games.
You are totally wrong. ND is in a position of strength due to it's brand ... a scheduling agreement is always an option if they do refuse to join a conference. Maybe in 4-5 years they may be forced to. But not today.lol this idea is just as silly as the one you quoted...neither the BIG or SEC is going to do anything to help ND stay independent.

This is well out of Rad’s hands. Problem is not of his making & he can’t wave a magic wand.Somebody wake up Sleepy Rad
Wrong read on the situation. B10 has room to get to 24. They moved up their acquisition of OR / WA by 4-5 years due to the unexpected collapse of the Pac 12. Their next target HAD BEEN the ACC. Now the ball is in our court ... dissolve the ACC and make the move. Finebaum commented yesterday that FSU / Clemson DO have a home in the SEC. He doesn't make comments without some basis in fact (even though he is a total douche). Reality is that for reaching a NEGOTIATE EXIT FROM THE ACC having FSU / Clemson WANTED by the SEC is a great advantage. ESPN / SEC reach an agreement with FSU / Clemson on a reasonable GOR payout ...then that automatically applies to others wanting to exit. Bye.I feel like we should be full blown panicking…. Oregon and Washington before us I think causes they BIG to wait a few more years before adding more
Yeah, we’re feeling good about Gordon Tidwell. Family enjoyed Harvard visit, but loved South Florida vibe.Can you imagine The Bank 3 years from now. Filled with head to head recruiting battles vs Connecticut and Temple. That's our future if they **** this up
