Actually, part of the contract that has been reported. I believe Wes Durham reported. Same person that revealed the 45 million about ESPN to the ACC. This is part of the deal to get ND to join as a full member. Why some in ACC country think it may be Navy even though the dream would be Texas if B12 implodes. Still don't see ND joining as long as the B12 exists.

That doesn't mean the ACC has to take the school Notre Dame mentions. The ACC can tell them to go pound sand and unless it's in the year 2036 (or whatever year the current contract ends) ND can't do a damned thing about it. Their voice is their 1 vote....yay or nay.

DefConn, how about this. I don't admit I have no clue about UCONN and the AAC. This is why I ask questions. Maybe you want to try this your limited knowledge about the ACC. ACC can't add a 15th team unless it is Notre Dame as part of the agreement for the 16th Notre Dame has a says. ND doesn't join and their is no 16th team. It is not a simple as one vote, it will have to be mutually agreed too. Not that I agree with this, but the ACC will bring in whoever Notre Dame wants as a football partner. Many think that will be Navy. Let's say I am pretty confident that my ACC sources probably are more reliable and associated with the ACC than yours.

Navy will never join a power conference for the same reason air force said no to the big 12, because they can't compete on that high of a level.

Navy probably would only get a full invite but the ACC would take a Football only gladly.

Well, I know somebody, who knows somebody, who robbed somebody that says your source is wrong and p*ssed his pants when being held up.

Navy's not joining the ACC...ever. ND can demand it all they want, Navy's not doing it.

For msm96wolf, Westhoff123, and DefCONNOne, Navy would certainly consider a football-only place in the ACC just like the BigXII. Final call may well be "no" but we joined a BCS conference in '11-'12 despite hand wringing over competitiveness in order to be on the inside looking out for the next tectonic shift.
How many of you said a year ago that Navy couldn't compete in this conference?

Literally no one said navy couldn't compete in this conference. There are plenty of stupid things posted on this site but i don't remember anyone ever saying that.

Funny. If you ask notre dame, Navy is a tough opponent and part of their hard championship schedule and they count as p5 opponent.

Well, if that's the baseline then there are some outstanding southland conf. teams that SEC teams are certain equate to top line P5 competition for voting purposes.

Its true though, is it not.

UConn isn't getting an ACC invite.

With that said, hypothetically if we were invited to the ACC we'd join them. They're a stronger conference, their schools are much closer to us, they promise a network, we could renew old rivalries from the Big East, etc.

Comments like these got me curious about when Navy joining the OBE. Reading the original article from Navy joining the Big East, http://www.ncaa.com/news/football/articl...t-football

Trying to figure out where the Navy not wanting P5 comes from. In addition, another interesting find was CBS owns the TV rights to the Army-Navy game and Navy's home games against Notre Dame through 2018.

Can't imagine why the ACC would ever be interested in Navy football.

UCONN

Relegate FB to FCS (you know you want to) and join the BE in all other sports where you belong


that is all

did you tell either the ACC or Big 10 that? because they might need a heads up.
