Message: [QUOTE="Hoophound, post: 1050561, member: 271"] In fairness to ND, I don't think they look to destroy anyone, they just put themselves first. They happen to be in a unique position which makes their self preservation very detrimental to others. I can't say they are evil, they just do what they have to do to preserve their model and at this point, everyone they do business with should know that. ND isn't joining the ACC unless it puts them in a better position. The fact that ND would in fact choose the ACC if they had to pick a conference is probably true today. However, if the ACC loses anyone else of significant value (UVA, UNC, FSU, Clemson) to the Big Ten or SEC, that will likely change and it won't be ND's fault. The ACC needs to lure ND before anything else changes, but change is what will spur ND to pick a conference. I think it's all up in the air. [/QUOTE]
