Again, TIFWIW, thought I would pass it along.

The TV deal best get us at a minimum $3 million per team/year so that we can stay within striking distance of the SEC/B1G or else the addition of Notre Dame's worthless sports and the loss of a bowl bid every year because of their parasitic football program isn't worth it. At that point the only value ND would bring is attendance, and Clemson can get that playing SEC teams OOC.

As for a GOR, If Jim Barker agrees to that he should be fired by text message and prohibited from even coming back to Clemson to pack. If we sign a GOR with a bunch of programs that have never given a tinker's damn about football we might as well tarp over the upper deck and invest all our money into baseball and hoops.

The GOR is the least appealing nonsense there is in realignment discussions. Even the Big 12 knows that the GOR is only good for lining your bird cage.
