Message: [QUOTE="snowycuse, post: 563414, member: 1910"] ACC die-hards are not happy that Notre Dame is getting in with a 5 game agreement in 2015 as they believe it should be all-sports or nothing. Letting them in two years early in 2013 with no football arrangement would drive them nuts. Adding a 6th game in 2015 and beyond would make up for it to some extent (in their minds) but the reality is it would be a backdoor move to get to full conference affiliation by the time the next deal is being worked on. ACC does not want to be looked at like the Big East was. ESPN has been pushing the 6th game for a while regardless and frankly 3/3 works better on a number of levels. ACC has been ready for Notre Dame for a while. Irish were content to stay in the BE with the catholic schools but they were never staying in the A12 or whatever they are calling themselves these days. [/QUOTE]
