ND is a bad partner but BYU did the right thing. Now, if we ever play them again, do a contract that guarantees they are in Provo before we complete our end of the deal. BYU didn't have much leverage to do so in 2010 and ND was not yet required to play 5 ACC games per season when the deal was made. It makes sense how it all turned out.

I’m still hoping for 50%. Has 30% been said anywhere besides here?

Yes, it is confirmed. Very reliable source

So is it 30% BYU 30% ND 40% general?

Did they say how the remaining 50,000 are split?

5/25/22 5:42pm

Solution is to buy tixs from the ND website. Did that for the 2012 game.

ND is the one who should be getting the 30%. Such a rip.

This is the final commitment for Notre dame in what changed to a 2home 1 neutral

So not only did the final a home game for BYU get switched to. Neutral site game

I’m fine being with ND. They’ve proven to not be honest brokers. I’m ok with playing them in Vegas.

I'd imagine it's tougher to buy tickets through Notre Dame than Arizona

I'm pretty sure the source of the 70/30 rumor is...

5/25/22 3:08pm

Is it confirmed 30% BYU, 70% ND or is it likely 30%, 30%, and 40% general public

BYU had zero leverage in this situation.

We’re also getting more money than just a home game.

Does anyone know if ND used this game to satisfy their return trip obligation?

Ursas Puma

Having zero leverage is a product of bad negotiation. Don't play ND at all if it
