You assume we did nothing with other teams in the B12. You assume we acted like henchman. You assume no other teams will schedule us despite us continually trying to schedule them. You assume ND was never going to fulfill the contract. You are jumping straight to a worst case scenario based nothing but your assumptions which is based on conjecture gained from what is likely just various boards like CB. If we are just going to assume (and at this point I agree that is all we can do with so little solid information in the public domain), we don't have to always jump straight to the worst case scenario.

For instance, the ND issue could just as well be based on their moving into a scheduling agreement with the ACC that limits their open dates. Does it suck, sure, but that contract was a big enabler allowing us to make the jump to independence. Time will tell what will happen with realignment, playoffs, and what not. Lets just not always jump to the worst case assumption that the sky is falling.
