Is Tom Holmoe going to continue to ignore the fact that Notre Dame owes us

I wish people still had integrity. I am sure people can say "it business" but

If they give us money, they kept their word.

Somewhat. It means they are willing to pay the penalty they agreed to if

They kept their word. Their word is play the game or pay the penalty.

It is not going ignored. He knows they owe us those games...

ND is going to owe BYU a huge check

Buyout $ is almost certainly written into the contract

Missouri was $1,000,000.00. With two away games, I've got to imagine

Wow - a Billion $ for Missouri.

Look closer at the decimal point.

That is the way I understand it too.

It is one home game. It was 2 for 1, ND had the out option for the other series

It was sch filed long before Tuckett went to Alabama.

I remember seeing the Alabama home game on a future schedule and then

I first saw the Alabama game on the schedule in early 1992...it was set for 98

there was supposed to be a H-H in 1995 and 1996

I wish Notre Dame could see the marketing value of a clash of independents on
NOCAL_YFAN
10/27/16 4:51pm
What market value? No one wants to see that game vs the various CCG's.

What would you like him to do? Send an angry tweet? Call their AD a "fetcher"?
shakinbaker
10/27/16 4:53pm
That's what ASU did
bocadillotortuga
10/27/16 5:14pm
And ASU looked really dumb for doing so. That's my point.
shakinbaker
10/28/16 4:19am
.....and they will likely not have a good relationship going forward.

10/28/16 7:31am
He has said he expects the return ND game. I didn't know re Alabama.

ND's AD stated a while back "we still owe BYU a game" or something similar

I have heard the opposite. They don't discuss it and is all but dead.

Here is a statement from Tom Holmoe. ND only owes us 1 game now.
cougareugene
10/27/16 5:03pm
definitely sounds like he's ignoring the issue
StantonMac

Glad to see TH is not doing very many 2 for 1s anymore

Your question is flawed: it presumptuously assumes it has been ignored.
ZooBlue
10/27/16 5:17pm
They are contract games. Guarantee they are not ignored. Bought out, probably.

I don't believe the ESPN contract covers BYU away games.
squidmark
10/27/16 7:38pm
And if ESPN has the rights to the other teams games, we might be a compelling ma
GilbertAZCougar

It does not. A game @ ND would be on NBC.

BYU has no bargaining power in this game.
Cougstreak
10/28/16 7:37am
If Missouri owed us $1 billion dollars and I can see why no one would cancel.

Pretty sure that Alabama game was a one and done deal
Bill

Home and home that was bought out
wapiti
10/27/16 9:23pm
The 1998 game was a one and done deal
STLcoug
10/27/16 9:53pm
Nope- There was a home and home cancelled when the SEC expanded but the game

I think he should lead us all in a big cry

10/27/16 11:27pm
ND not coming back, no big upside; wait years and buyout is less with inflation

Yup, why pay now? Always better to have optionality if needed.

Notre Dame only has two open away games through 2025: one in 2021, and one in 2025.
