IMO if the ACC went to 16 they would listen to ND and would likely go in this order. Note:the first options are pure fantasy
1.Penn State/Texas......3. Cincinnati/Navy......5.West Virginia......6.UConn
 
I think the ACC would try to land either Texas and Penn State realizing neither is likely, but are worth taking a stab at and with Notre Dame on board they would be atleast be somewhat receptive to listening. Then, Cincinnati/Navy and depending on what Notre Dame said which one it would favor over the other, if ND wanted Navy they would likely be the 16th team, but if they said we don't need Navy then Cincinnati has maintained a good relationship with the ACC and would be a rival for Louisville and in ND's geographic footprint. If for some reason WVU rehabbed its relationship with the ACC and the academic schools UVA, Duke, UNC, BC allowed FSU and Clemson another sports program over an all around university WVU would probably be the better option than Cincinnati/Navy, but I truly believe the wounds are too deep for WVU to ever get an invitation to the ACC. Finally, UConn has no chance unless 3-4 ACC schools leave and the conference needs a warm body OR ND expresses personal preference to UConn being the 16th team which HIGHLY unlikely.
