Message: [QUOTE="OrangeCrush22, post: 185427, member: 620"] The only 3 schools that would send the ACC into action are Notre Dame, Penn State, and Texas. One of those 3 is needed for further expansion. Notre Dame to the ACC if very likely. If ND has to join a conference, for all sports, it will be the ACC. They hate the B1G, and the XII doesn't have markets they want exposure in. I think we eventually see Notre Dame and UConn/Rutgers. Rutgers, having large on campus facilities, is probably ahead of UConn in some ACC schools minds. While UConn having good basketball, is ahead in other ACC schools minds. Rutgers, along with ND, brings 7 lacrosse programs. Rutgers also makes it easier for us to recruit NJ. Plus whether you'd like to admit it, they're a nice football rival. UConn is purely basketball. No football history. Small, off campus, stadium. They have good basketball, but play off campus in basketball too. [/QUOTE]
