Message: [QUOTE="DoctorBombay, post: 2362063, member: 626"] Not so much an obsession, more like insurance. Delaney and the B1G’s white whale has always been ND. One theory why he annexed Rutgers and especially MD, other than cable rights fees of course, is because he wanted to protect his flank in the Midwest. Fortunately ND football is stuck on being “independent” and Delaney won’t accept anything less than full membership. If the ACC can get ND football as a full member, it protects against Delaney’ s future B1G manuevers, increases our TV earnings, and secures unlimited access to the NE. The ND deal is mutually beneficial as it is at present. Getting them as full members would totally secure the future. [/QUOTE]
