can you spell MONEY ???? Notre Dame has no use for conference ties at all, their checkbook is in fine shape, thank you anyway!!
I have another link that suggests a strategy where the BigTen invades the East coast, separates the ACC, geographically, (Commisioner Delaney was the captain of the 1970 North Carolina bball team under Dean Smith), gets its hooks into them then finishes it all off with accepting Notre Dame football from a weakened ACC conference ... or something like that.
Notre Dame hates the BigTen and Pitt stinks and has no fan base. Maryland is much better and Rutgers has the NY metro market.
Hey, I’m Catholic, have friends that went to ND but teams should have to be in a conference. I love my NY Yankees, most successful team in sports history, doesn’t mean they don’t have to play in the AL east...
When every other sport joined the Big East, football should of had to as well. Of course they wouldn’t have liked it as they wouldn’t even have won the Big East most of the years they would have been in it!
Take a lesson from what happened to the Miami Hurricanes, they were dominant while still an independent, once they went to a conference it was over.
Why? Because they decided to go all out thug and break lots of NCAA rules?
Maryland is in for 2014. It’s all about $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Just wait.
You try to run a team with a 5th string QB b/c the 1st 4 strings were all on injured list.
Maryland WILL be back.
Happy Thanksgiving to you and the family!
