[QUOTE="g0lftime, post: 882547, member: 2672"] The B1G TV 2023 contract was expected to be signed by now. Unless something happens really quickly to add more schools, it would seem there is no real advantage to increase the contract value unless it was ND. ND doesn't seem ready to make any commitment or change its current status. It supposedly has a contract obligation to join the ACC if it joins a conference. They would need to act pretty soon if they want to get into the TV contract with the B1G. If the ACC were to sue ND if they did agree to join the B1G, then it could really complicate the TV contract currently in negotiation and which must be fairly far along by now. ND just doesn't fit the SEC profile and frankly they see themselves above the majority of schools in that conference. So if ND does nothing now, it seems to bode well to remain stable within the current ACC agreement. What happens when their NBC contract is up will be interesting and may dictate what they decide to do next. So their options are 1) stay independent 2) join the ACC in FB 3) test their ACC contract and join the B1G at some point based on the NBC deal and test their ACC contract. I have seen some speculation that the B1G might try to get a split TV network deal to have early games on one network and later games on another (Fox/NBC). That might be attractive to ND. If the ACC stays together then ND may just do nothing and work a new NBC deal. If the ACC comes apart, then they would no longer have the ACC agreement to deal with. I only see that happening if several teams bolt to the SEC and test the GOR in court. We might be watching Clemson playing Ole Miss on the ACC network and both are in the SEC or Clemson playing FSU and both are in the SEC. [/QUOTE]
