This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

I think most of ND's other sports align well with the B1G by pmoose
If the B1G were willing to have ND in the conference except for football at virtually any point in time, I think it would have happened already. And I see the changing landscape of conference realignment as making it much, much less likely that the B1G (or any conference who hopes to continue to have access to D1A football playoffs) taking ND except football.
Could ND rejoin the Big East? Sure, but the other sports just don't line up that well with the Big East.
I personally think ND will belong the the B1G in all sports in the next 10 years, including football. Note that I think that will happen, that's not what I want to happen. Also note that this assumes that the ACC's Grant of Rights dissolves (or is close enough to make the exit money tolerable).
