    Good point Black Ship. ND is the prize but Texas is bending backwards too much for them. They don't seem to have the affection to Texas as we have for them. Maybe I'm wrong. "look we want u to come, our house is ur best option but if u continue to dick us around we will move without u." Acc is about to no longer be an option for them, Big East is done. They don't like the B1G. PAC will require them to partner with someone. I don't want partial ND,unless they contract saying football will come in 2016.

    I want GT regardless. Fsu/Clemson/GT get the southeast and 3 states. We will sti have 3 spots left. Virginia, Maryland, Pitt, BC(if that's the the partner ND wants to bring). 1 spot left for ND. ND is gonna want to come in calling its shots, that can't happen.

    It is my opinion the FSU and Clemson will be a better culture fit than ND.

    Football is big in the Midwest, but it is life in the Southeast.

    Big 12 can work with Fsu, Clemson, ND and other programs that want to grow their brand. IF, and its most likely that Sec and B1G and maybe Pac will all go to 14-16 teams, then we have room to add like minded programs. Fsu/Clemson seem to meet that criteria for sure. ND if forced to be in a conf will want to keep their 3rd tier rights and they can only do that in Big 12.

    I think FSU and Clemson would fit from the first day.

  • Notre Dame doesn't seem to have any trouble selling tickets. In fact, I'd guess that no one, not even UT is a better road draw than ND.
