It is rather annoying. If the Big Ten does this payday loan deal they've been talking about, maybe the ACC would be brave enough to tell ND it's time to fish or cut bait. The ACC likely wouldn't be facing the possibility of a 7-5 team winning the conference if they had a normal conference setup with 9 games played, and if the ACC makes ND choose, where do they do? They need a conference home for all their other sports, even if they think football can stay independent.

My understanding back in the day that ND didn't want to join the B1G because of their research arms being up in every, member's bizness. IDK is that is still the case, though. Even the service academies are in a conference these days. Special exceptions for ND need to end.

It's really just resentment over being blackballed by Michigan. Fielding Yost was a horrible person. So, Notre Dame took lemons and made lemonade. But, it's time for the special status to end.
