All right, Brian, in the final part of today's show here on the Irish Breakdown podcast brought to you by by Fanduil. We have a mailbag to take us home. And if this does happen to be your first one, put a little MB for mailbag or a little mailbox emoji to set it aside. Let's us know to set it aside. We can't go forever. So if you do want to make sure that your question does get answered, you can always feel free to throw in a super chat. those get bumped up to the top. And like always, Brian, I'm pretty sure we have a couple in

there already. We have several, yeah. So we'll go ahead and get started here with James Delaney. Thank you,

James. Appreciate the super chat. Where do you put Notre Dame's non-football sports if and when the

ACC dies? I have two avenues.

The first one that I would do is I would talk to the Big Ten and see if they have interest in signing a deal similar to what you had with the ACC.

If not, then I take my teams at the Big East.

You're making about $10 to $50 million a year with those deals.

I don't think you're going to make quite that,

but you're going to make a lot more on your current deals.

So I would take it to the Big East.

It makes a lot more sense geographically.

You're going to save more money than you spent on travel going to Big East schools

compared to playing in the ACC, which is now out in California and Texas and Florida and Georgia.

So I think all of those things will be factors in it.

So I would first pursue the Big Ten.

Hey, we'll schedule a five, you know, four to five game a year deal.

If they say no, then I take them to the Big East and you start working on putting

together an independent schedule again. And, you know, like, because you're not going to have the

Big East doesn't have the football aspect of it. But as I've said before, Notre Dame won't have a

problem scheduling games. They won't. Especially with all these leagues mandating that they have to

play X number of

P4 or Notre Dame.
