November 21, 200619 yr They would lose that if they joined a conference...don't look for that anytime soon. Besides they are already in the Big East for the other sports.
November 21, 200619 yr Author They would lose that if they joined a conference...don't look for that anytime soon. Besides they are already in the Big East for the other sports. Dont you honestly think they would win the title very year and get the BCS Bid?
November 21, 200619 yr Dont you honestly think they would win the title very year and get the BCS Bid? With the lack of defensive speed they have had the last few years, no.
November 21, 200619 yr Norte Dame would would be a perfect fit. BCS Bowl every year. Norte Dame will never join a conference 1- the deal they have with NBC- dont have to share the money 2- Bowl money the keep all for themselves. Only way they join a conference is the BCS cut them out and that will never happen.

Im sure they would take a big cut in proffits if they joined the BigEast.
November 22, 200619 yr I pretty much consider them a big east team as it is now anyway. No real reason to actually join tho.
November 22, 200619 yr Author With the lack of defensive speed they have had the last few years, no. Your kidding right? They would win the big East every year in football.
November 22, 200619 yr Your kidding right? They would win the big East every year in football. The same Notre Dame team that hasn't won a Bowl game in a decade? Before last season they had been very average for a lot of years. Would they win the Big East this year...maybe. UL and WVU are very good and Notre Dame is....to be kind...untested. Love your passion for your team, but to claim anyone would win any conference every year is painting yourself in a corner. How about we let them win a Bowl Game this century, and then we'll start anointing them (again) the greatest team in America. Maybe we'll get a UL v. ND game in a Bowl and you'll have an idea if they'd have won the Big East this year. Although I think the thought of that might make RP have a breakdown.

I am not a ND fan I Bleed Blue I was just thinging about the Big East today with only 8 teams if each team plays 12 games that is 7 conference games. If you get 5 OOC cupcakes you only have to win 1 conference game to be boel eligible. UCONN , Syracuse are pitiful and South Fla. is not very good. I was just wondering if they will add any teams and ND is already for basketball is why they came up.
November 22, 200619 yr Notre Dame football, will not join a conference in the near or distant future...serves not financial, recruiting or competition need.
November 22, 200619 yr Notre Dame did attempt to join a conference once. It didn't go well. They have a long memory in South Bend and dealing with Fielding Yost and the rest of the Big Ten was annoying. All they did without the conference was become the greatest program in college football. Barring a huge shift in the program, causing them to be completely rotten, it'll never happen.
November 22, 200619 yr Now that is a good idea. I know 6 good cupcakes, how about Texas St., Central Michigan, La. Monroe, Vandy, Ole Miss and Miss St. How did UK get them all to commit. UL gets them to schedule but they always back out.
