So Yormark doesn't want Notre Dame to even consider the Big 12?
Unless he knows they’d never come here, in which case pushing them to a conference could hasten the demise of the ACC leaving the big 12 as the last conference standing.I was thinking this as well. Yormark should have stayed silent on this one.
Dunno, it might help sour the goodwill ND has left. They swung their dicks a bit too much and many are walking away. They may have to swallow their pride and come to the table like everyone else.I was thinking this as well. Yormark should have stayed silent on this one.

Remember (if you are a fan of a religiously affiliated school), God doesn’t care about sports. Unless your team wins. Then it’s a sign of his divine favor.It'd be kinda cool to get ND into the Big 12 and have an annual Crusade Tournament between ND, BYU, Baylor, TCU. We'd probably need to get SMU to cover the Methodists as well. We don't want Liberty though.
ND was never going to join the Big 12. I don't think he put anything at risk here.I was thinking this as well. Yormark should have stayed silent on this one.
