Well, no that wouldn't happen.

The problem is the contracts are incompatible. ESPN/FOX owns all Big 12 content. NBC owns all ND content. NBC has no reason to do ESPN/FOX/the Big 12 any favors if they are losing Notre Dame. One of those 2 contracts would have to be broken, and when that happens, NBC would have to get PAID.

We're not paying off NBC.
