Message: [QUOTE="Faegan, post: 50300, member: 360"] I was talking to an alumni of ND last night that is actually from South Bend, and he basically said that the hesitancy for ND to join the Big 10 has always been that there are so many alums on the East Coast. They like to go back to South Bend for games, but like having other games away from the mid-west. Big 12? How does that fit into that logic? He also said there's been more scuttlebutt/reassurance from the administration to alums that they are watching the landscape, etc. His feeling was that the ACC makes the most sense from what he hears and what he has always known about the alumni and what they like/want. That being said, he said it's going to be hard to get certain alums that donate a lot of money on board. Others recognize that they might not be in the cat bird seat forever, and it might be evolving into a now or never type situation for them. [/QUOTE]
