Dan Wetzel, Yahoo Sports --- If I’m Notre Dame today I’m on the phone to Atlantic Coast Conference headquarters in Greensboro, N.C. because tomorrow may be too late.
If I’m Notre Dame today, and I see the Big East in mid-implosion, see that the ACC has essentially left a spot for me (temporarily) and see the long-term demographic trends for the Midwest, I’m spending the afternoon having a long, soul-searching look in the independence mirror.
And then I’m starting negotiations to join the ACC, not the Big Ten, my persistent local suitor and the one everyone assumes I’ll eventually marry.
“Obviously they are the most attractive option out there,” one ACC athletic director told Yahoo! Sports on Monday, noting he had no knowledge of any discussions between the school and the league. Speaking generally, however, he added: “every league would want Notre Dame and we’re no different.”

Notre Dame to the ACC? Part 2...
Image via WikipediaI have been watching this story unfold and I have to admit that it's been like a car accident, you don't want to look, but you have to. I am still holding out hope that Notre Dame doesn't end up in the B1G, so once again a certain Gopher know it all fan will be wrong on another prediction. This was the same person that said Scott Sandelin to Penn State was a done deal.
