Notre Dame & Friends Conference?

[Wesley]

I think it's called the Big East.

There also could be a God's Conference: ND, Creighton, Boston College, Loyola Marymount, Marquette, Niagara, St Joesph's Philly, St John's, St Louis, Seton Hall, Dayton, San Diego, Villanova, Xavier.

Then we could convert.:wink:

Apparently Catholics play more basketball than football.:notworthy:

This is a crazy idea that popped into my head...how about the "outcasts" from the Big 12 get together with Notre Dame and make up their own conference (assuming ND won't join the Big 10). We can just bend over and take it from the Irish and give them a larger portion of the revenue than the rest of us but in exchange we get the national love affair that everyone has with ND. Everyone gets major t.v. exposure by playing ND and we add some other decent schools like BYU, Utah, Cincinnatti or perhaps ND can pull in some other schools out east.

Anyone else think this wouldn't be as bad of an option as it might first seem?

IMHO, its as bad of an idea as it first seemed. :smile: You have ND with one of the largest endowments in the country, THEIR OWN TV deal, why in the world would they want to give up their independence for that deal. I think for ND it is a choice between joining the bIg 10 or keeping their independence.

Don't forget Tulane and Rice.
