[QUOTE="orientalnc, post: 814370, member: 1199"] If the Kansas stories are correct, expect Iowa State to join the B1G as well. That would pretty much close the door on ND becoming a member. These four 16 member conferences (PAC-12 will soon be 16 if this happens) are not going to let a single independent school keep them out of a four team CFP. The pressure on ND will continue to build. The puzzlement I still have about all this is just wondering how much does the money really control everything. Would a WVU invitation from the ACC entice Penn State to move to the ACC? From a financial POV that makes no sense. But being part of a conference centered around the mid-Atlantic with Pitt, VT, UVa, WVU, and Syracuse (all very close to them) might be very attractive. At some point the university presidents have to ask themselves whether football is really about money or is it a diversion for students and a nice way to stay attached to alums. Does football make Penn State a better school? If not, what about football makes the school a better place to spend four years getting a PSU degree? [/QUOTE]
