Message: [QUOTE="billybud, post: 4358154, member: 3850"] Damages..? I see that you are missing the point...If Notre Dame stays independent, they meet their contractual obligation. If they join the B1G they breach. And there are effects of that breach. The damage to the ACC is...the value of lost revenue of Notre Dame not joining the ACC, if they joined a conference, as contracted. The value that they bring the B1G is a place to start. That value that they would bring to a conference...they have contractually pledged that value through 2036. It isn't the handful of games currently contracted yearly....it is the vast value that Notre Dame brings to a conference as a football member....upgraded ESPN ACC media contracts that float all boats...and a decade of that. I believe that Notre Dame will stay independent and seek big bucks from NBC for their 7 home games...75 million is being booted about. [/QUOTE]
