Just how much you are willing to give up to get out of it is the question.


I've long wondered how they actually apply to ND.

A lot of talk that ND can't move until 2035, but the ACC doesn't have ND's football rights anyway and I can't imagine we are talking a ton of money for the basketball rights.


The bigger problem for ND as I see it

Would be if they wanted to join a football conference. Their deal with the ACC doesn't require them to join the ACC for football, but does state that ND can't join any football conference other than the ACC during that period. Strictly a hunch, but my guess is that in the minds of the ACC, that provision is worth quite a bit more money than is ND's GoR provision (IIRC, ND's GoR, which does not include football, is worth roughly the same as Wake Forest's, which includes football).
