Being this elite "above everyone else" school makes them arrogant and entitled which almost never leads to top performance.
nobody know if it will happen but imo it would definitely help Notre Dame field a better football team.

Yeah, it's stupid to think of things from a business perspective.
Dan Patrick interviewed Brian Kelly and Kelly flat out said that moving to the B10 would HURT recruiting. They'd become a regional school instead of a national school.
He said something along the lines of their current recruitment across the country, coast-to-coast, and that it's a huge advantage for a east coast kid to know that ND will play several EC games, same with the West Coast.
Holtz, old and senile as he is, also made a good point on ESPN. ND is the only school in the nation that could go into California and steal a top prospect from USC. Same in Texas. Same in Florida.
Only the ND haters refuse to see all of this.
