Message: [QUOTE="Cusefan95, post: 883523, member: 173"] I'm interested in your theory on how the Big East - with absolutely no political leverage - was going to force Notre Dame - who had other conferences willing to take them on for all sports except football (like the ACC just did) and no interest at all in joining the Big East - to have no option except joining the Big East for football. Or what exactly the Big East was going to do to force Miami and Virginia Tech to stay - sue them like UConn did? That went well. The Big East leadership was a sh!tshow - things like not trying very hard to get Syracuse into a bowl game one year we were eligible and got left out was fantastically stupid and lazy, and showed that they didn't value football or the football programs of their member schools - but they had no leverage to prevent Miami or Va Tech from leaving or forcing ND to join.
