Think we can get stimulus money from the government?

Bush library killed that chance for SMU.

If you think we don't travel well now, wait and see what it is when we are in the Big East.

There are still people in New Orleans who have the deep old pockets that can rival the big Dallas nuevo dinero. That's Right. Problem is, all their cash goes to LSU because their kid got denied by an admissions director from Brooklyn.

I dont believe Tulane has as large an endowment. Certainly not on any list i have seen

Not even by Japanese standards.

Tulane may have a large endowment, they just don't have large donors for athletics or an administration willing to help

Funny thing our DC chapter is one of the largest outside of Texas and Chicago. So, Georgetown hoops games will be money. And there are soo many bars near the Verizon Center, all within staggering distance of the arena and an easy subway ride home to sober up before driving home.

Stop bragging. We that are on the other side of the coin have enough self esteem issues without you bringing "that" up.

SOUTH BEND, Ind. -- While announcing his hockey program's intent to join Hockey East, Notre Dame athletics director Jack Swarbrick joked Wednesday that everything he did every day dealt with realignment in one way or another.

In the big way -- how the whole mess affects the future of Notre Dame football independence -- Swarbrick sounded a cautiously optimistic note about the Big East's ideas for survival.

"It's great to make plans -- it's whether the people you might be interested in or the circumstances will allow you to achieve those plans," Swarbrick told a group of reporters Wednesday, including the Tribune. "But certainly the way the conference is thinking and what it's trying to achieve are consistent with what I think it needs to do."

The cause-and-effect is fairly clear: A viable Big East provides Notre Dame a needed home for its basketball teams and other non-revenue sports while allowing the Irish to retain their coveted football independence. If the Big East folds or is undercut in some significant way, then dominos start to fall.

Swarbrick declined to discuss what level of viability the Big East needed to maintain in order for Notre Dame to continue calling it home.

"They're working on additions," Swarbrick said. "You have to wait until the whole picture is shaped to really have a feel for what that option is like. You just continue to support them and be involved in their planning and hope they wind up in a great place."

"Hey Jack, remember, I was the captain of the '77 Natl. Championship team...come on, give us a push. One Fightin Irish helping another. We'll let you in to Dallas as much as you want."
