Message: [QUOTE="007, post: 17381, member: 393"] Agree with this take, Neil. Not only "plausible denialibility," but also momentarily diverts some national focus of attention away from ND's culpability in the demise of the BE. It's more than a little hypocritical to cast stones like that at SU and Pitt when you live in the ultimate glass house surrounded by the ultimate golden parachute. ND is the driver's seat when it comes to the fact that they will never be left without a chair at the table if and when they want one, any one. There is no way in hell that they do not already have multiple contingency plans in place with multiple conferences. And there is no way in hell they will not negotiate that position to their maximum benefit if and when their hand is forced. The other BE schools have good reason to be very upset. ND does not, knows it, but will spin the PR. [/QUOTE]
