As far as the liability goes, you've got a better shot of getting in the playoffs by winning a 12 team conference than a 16 team conference. If you're absolutely one of the 4 power conferences, you're fine. If you're on the fringe (ACC versus Big XII), it's a scramble to get more teams and make sure that you are the fourth conference.

Oh hai guyz. Notre Dame can just keep their existing contract and get our tier 1 money and be part of our conference and play 12 games scheduled against non-Big XII teams and play a Big XII conference schedule and endowments and it's so American!!!

There has always been a huge disparity in revenues. Look at the Sunbelt. Hell, look at FCS.

Then again games involving those teams are worth a fraction of what a game against Notre Dame is. So I can see why they can move much easier than ND... Guess we agree. |

Unlike the SEC deal that has no interest in paying more money to each school because of MU and A&M joining. |

I guess the difference would be that aTm and Mizzou didn't get to keep the revenues they would have otherwise received whereas you're saying that Notre Dame could keep their NBC contract while bailing on their contracted games.

The contract would not exist in the current state that it does now. But yes, the NBC deal with Notre Dame will exist in some form once they join the Big 12. |

Didn't see this posted, but I might have missed it. Don't really believe it....but whatever....
Greg Swaim @ GSwaimI'm told that # ND will jump in # Big12 very soon with Olympic sports, and then football joins after TV contract expires. # BlowsMyMind The # ND deal apparently was a catalyst for getting # FSU aboard all along. This thing is happening fast now for the # Big12 |

Honestly, I don't think ND is going anywhere, if I had to bet $100 on it right now, I'd say they stay independent because I don't think the conference champs model is going to fly. I used to think so, but this Big 12-SEC thing is a game changer. Not only will the Big 12 probably line up under the Slive plan, but they have an ace in the hole: they can now just tell the Big 10/PAC 12 "well F it then, we can't agree, lets just do the plus 1 plan" (where everyone secretly thinks the winners of the Rose Bowl/game-yet-to-be-named-but-probably-going-to be-played-at-Jerryworld will be the participants) If we do top-4 then Notre Dame has a viable path to the championship game if they go undefeated.
I don't think the Big 12 will be opposed to the top 4, because the conference champs model would have screwed them several times in the last 10 years. If they wont budge, we'll just do plus one until they throw up their hands and say "fine, we'll do it your way"

Here is some more from Swaim......
Greg Swaim @ GSwaimThe time frame for # ND phasing in football could allow them to phase out contracts with # Purdue, # MSU, # GoBlue, # USC, # Stanford or # Navy. Expand 53m Greg Swaim @ GSwaim @ TheWarNole I don't know exactly how fast, but am told in the # ND athletic department that today things were "all go" for the move. # Surreal View conversation 1h Greg Swaim @ GSwaim " @ tobywayne10: @ GSwaim what would money be like with both of those" // Outrageous!! Expand 1h Greg Swaim @ GSwaim @ jbresette Not officially...but unofficially, it's quite possible. View conversation 1h Greg Swaim @ GSwaim The # BigEast is virtually dead, and the # ACC is quickly dying...at least as far as the football world is conidered.
