If ND joins the ACC and wants to bring Navy along then I am fine with that. Navy is better than Duke and on par with Wake and UVA in football and they bring a tradition rich school to the ACC. Olympic sports are important to ND and Navy and most of their teams would fit well with the ACC. An added plus is that Navy is near so many ACC schools.

Otherwise, the move would have to be largely speculative, based on things like: enrollment, academics/compatability, support, fan base, TV footprint, legacy.

A lot of folks talk about UConn or Rutgers, but the arguments for each are lukewarm at best. Considering the geography of adding ND, I'm wondering about Cincy. Thoughts?
