The Big 10 is positioning itself pretty well. Especially if they land ND and the North Carolina schools. An impressive geographic footprint stretching across the country. If they were able to pull Texas out of the SEC deal, it starts making you think…
ND is the key if they commit to football. That is the money maker. They make a lot on their own. Too late for it now but I would have loved to have seen Duke with Coach K and Indiana with Knight playing each other twice a year. They would have to fuzz out their lips for lip readers.
Is Notre Dame still the draw it once was? It seems more of a "who cares?" program to me now, even in the eyes of the media that exaggerated their greatness over the last 30 years.
