That is correct. They are not.

But they do have a binding contract with the ACC that prevents them from joining another conference before 2036. At least according to Dennis Dodd.

IMO, the most interesting thing Dodd said is that ND is technically handcuffed

Sounds like it covers all sports and keeps ND from joining another conference.

ND is not part of the GOR for football from what I've seen

Because they have their own TV deal for football with NBC

Buyout for that is probably much smaller than a GOR

Probably. But I bet it's not small.

Small enough the B10 deal will make it not an issue

But he also said that some ACC teams could pay the exit over
