If you look at the big picture, ND Independence is our golden ticket. Joining the ACC for a year proved we don't need a conference.
- Our schedule is weaker in the ACC.
- We have to play a Clemson twice to get in the Playoff.
- We already get all the recruits & regional attention in the ACC by playing 5 ACC games/year
- We would ultimately lose our NBC contract benefits.
It does not PAY to join a conference!
