Message: [QUOTE="TerryD, post: 1598787, member: 3399"] And what of the multitude of other college football programs, in conferences, that will never even sniff a playoff berth, ever? Are none of them "elite programs", even if members of a P5 conference? Texas, Michigan or UCLA to use your examples? Michigan has won 1/2 a title in the last sixty some years. What are they? Non-elite, it seems. There is apparently no advantage to them to be a conference member. Pundits? Wow. I cannot imagine anyone caring what any of them have to say, ever, about anything. I have never heard of a weaker reason to do anything. Anyway, ND is not joining a football conference. Sorry, but this is message board fan fantasy that has about zero chance of even being considered by the ACC in the real world. The ACC is still a shaky conference and is in no position of power to issue any ultimatums to anyone. So, I don't see any chance of such a thing being directed towards ND by the conference. [/QUOTE]
