Message: [QUOTE="sutomcat, post: 353082, member: 27"] Why would ND move now? I think it says a lot about what is happening with the Big East and television negotiations. Did ESPN low ball the BE big time? Did ND talk with business partner NBC about numbers for the Big East? Were they told a big offer was not going to be forthcoming? The ACC takes more money off the table from the Big East. The ACC wins a key battle with the Big 12 regarding expansion. The ACC increases its buyout to the highest numbers for any conference, making it extremely stable overnight. The next big question is if the ACC will expand again, and if so, will it be for all sports or for another Notre Dame type school with no football? If it is going to be a team with no football, I can't see Georgetown getting in. Maryland hates them. The Hoyas have no fan base and the ACC already has the market. Makes no sense. [/QUOTE]
