Notre Dame has no business in the ACC unless it is for all sports.

I personally have been saying for years that Notre Dame belongs in the Big 10 seeing as how it's in the heart of that conference.

I totally agree, the ACC is allowing them to have their cake and eat it too.

Agreed. IIRC, aren't they playing ACC teams in football? Why not elect to go full membership?

yep they have an "arrangement" to play 5 ACC teams every year. Might as well go all in and play 3 more for a full slate.

Because they would have to give up a number of their traditional games and the TV money that goes with it. This is a good move for ND; the ACC has basically legitimized them in basketball, without them having to sacrifice their marquee football games.

But it was a stupid move for the ACC.

I didn't think about the TV money. That makes a lot of cents.

Under Armour and Notre Dame sign 10-year partnership

Notre Dame and Under Armour announced Tuesday that they have agreed to the most valuable shoe and apparel contract in college sports history.

The private school did not reveal the value of the 10-year deal, which will begin when its contract with adidas expires at the end of June, but sources told ESPN.com that the value of the deal, in cash and merchandise combined, is worth about $90 million.

That would make the deal worth more than the $82 million adidas is paying in cash and product to Michigan over 10 years.
