The only way that ND joins a conference IMO is 1. if there is a consolidation to 4 power conferences making playoff access nearly impossible for ND or 2. there is a split from the NCAA by the 5 conferences. Right now ND has an interest in the B12 and ACC coexisting. Should the P12 raid the B12 or B12 raid the ACC, then ND would have to join a conference. Until then they are just playing everyone.
 
IMO I would eventually like to see five 15 team conferences and a split in FB and BBall. In FB each conference would have three divisions with the division winners going to play for the conference championship (top team gets bye). Then in a playoff you have the 5 conf champs plus a wild card (top 2 teams get byes). That IMO keeps the reg season relevant. In BBall you play division teams twice a year to keep rivalries. Then you have a tourney of 36 teams (about same amount of big 5 teams as today), meaning 39 teams are left out. The 8/9 seeds play Thursday night then the rest of the teams play Saturday/Sunday. 
 
B1G adds ND, Pitt, and RU
SEC adds FSU
B12 adds Louisville, Cincy, Memphis, SMU, and Houston 
ACC adds UConn, Temple, and USF
P12 adds BYU, SD St, and Boise
 
This is unlikely to happen but as a fan I would like to see it.
