If Notre Dame is going to play four or five games, they may as well just go all in.

The partnership would not only be successful if ND joins as a full member someday.
The ACC will be more valuable with any arrangement with ND, period. We are seeing that networks will pay a premium for elite games, and ND would provide that.
Also, who is to say that there wouldn't be additional side benefits that aren't being discussed? What if ND joins the ACC in an ACC Network? The financial upside would be ridiculous.
