Like I said, people looking for clicks are trying to turn this into something more than it is.
Frankly, if I’m Sankey, the last thing I want to do is to further destabilize the ACC. He already fricked things up by taking OU and Texas, not that they were bad takes in and of themselves, but because that destabilized the Big XII and induced the Big Ten to do stupid things like killing off the PAC-12.
Having said that, if ND were to cut ties with the ACC and park its other sports in the Big East, a scheduling arrangement where ND agreed to play four SEC teams each year wouldn’t be out of the question as it would just provide SEC teams with an off the shelf P4 opponent, and could slip those games in throughout the season, rather than front loading them all in September.

SEC would also tell them all sports or nothing.

It’s only right to say “all or nothing”.

I didn’t think the Big East still existed in football.

Giving credit where it’s due......that’s good on the Big 10.
Don’t let them have their cake and eat it too. Getting the full benefit of “being in” a conference but keeping independence in order to not have to share monies.

Lol talk is cheap. We don't take schools from the Midwest except Mizzou.
Posted on 12/9/25 at 7:12 pm to hawgfaninc
Whatever we do, let’s kick Missou out first!

They call it the southeastern conference for a reason.

There are plenty of Catholics in the South, they are not regional they are national. Closer to South end than Norman or Austin by a lot for 70% of the SEC. NDU have hated each other for decades. Big has tried to force them in prior and did not go well.
ND is still much more of a Midwest and East Coast based school. They could make it work in the SEC but it is a very forced fit. They are a terrible fit in the Big 12. The B1G is the natural fit once both sides get over their egos and they can make a deal.

Note Dame in talks with the SEC?
Someone else needs to step up and steal their HC, we did it last time, someone else's turn now
Looks like still haven't learned where their place is

Ever been to Indiana outside of Indianapolis? Indy is as hick as any SEC state. They talk with a twang and love racing and making a lot of farm equipment.
and what % of ND students are from Indiana? 5% maybe?

All sports or nothing for Notre Dame. They would be an 8-4 team playing 5 SEC games per year.

Take Notre Dame, Clemson, and North Carolina, then drop our losers (Missouri, Auburn, South Carolina).

Nuh thanks. No quiters or team opt outs in the southeastern conference
