With the interests of the students at heart. Not necessarily setting your own football schedule. Especially when you look at next year's blah schedule. Sure football tradition is important too. But you don't lose that by joining a conference. Sign a short term contract and see how it works out.

    • Can't wait to get a piece of that private equity money 🤮 [NT] - humbaba - 1:32pm 1/6/26
    • IMHO the rationale for not joining a conference would be akin to black athletes going only to HBCUs - jrdjr84 - 12:37pm 1/6/26
      • Yeah, the committee will just say oops #13 again. Better luck next year. [NT] - DiscoRick - 12:42pm 1/6/26
    • ND played for the Natty last year and had maybe a better team this year. - NDNEIL - 12:35pm 1/6/26
    • Honestly, uphill battle, but I think more large brands like ND need to go independent [NT] - ClashmoreMikey - 12:24pm 1/6/26
    • Let's throw away 138 years of tradition because we lost a couple players - Nigel Tufnel - 11:58am 1/6/26

    • Agree - FENWAY - 10:21am 1/6/26
    • I believe NBC will dictate ND's move to a conference. - NDblues - 10:13am 1/6/26
      • Look at Indiana's 2025 Schedule. 2 games. Otherwise pathetic. [LINK] - Hensou - 11:27am 1/6/26
        • Look where they are and look where we are.So! [NT] - whatsamataU - 11:44am 1/6/26

        • Yep [NT] - irishslovak - 10:16am 1/6/26
      • Disagree, the last two seasons have been exciting, entertaining and full of surprises. [NT] - NDQuebec - 9:22am 1/6/26
        • So is the NFL. College football was exciting without the $$$ angle... [NT] - irishslovak - 10:18am 1/6/26
          • College Football WAY better IMO with NIL. 12 teams + more Parity + better playing teams [NT] - KWIRISH - 2:39pm 1/6/26
    • Personally, with NIL and the portal, it seems tradition is out of the window anyhow. - DiscoRick - 8:51am 1/6/26
      • Tradition is never out the window at ND. Joining a cartel is kowtowing to espn. [NT] - Hensou - 9:00am 1/6/26

              • It may be more likely that the conferences will explode. [NT] - Hensou - 1:22pm 1/6/26
                • That'd be ok too. [NT] - DiscoRick - 4:54pm 1/6/26
          • This ^^^^^. It would be so much more fun to play these teams. But I wonder how much it would cost to - NDQuebec - 9:27am 1/6/26
            • You'd think they'd just pay the revenue to the conference. - DiscoRick - 9:33am 1/6/26
