The real problem is....


that outside of being gifted a few major bowl slots and NBC trying desperately to maintain what relevant live sports programming it has ND is rapidly approaching being a marginal property. ND hasn't really been relevant in college football since Lou Holtz. Even the Gipper, the Golden Dome and all those Heismans will get stale if allowed to flounder too long and not many, if any, people under 40 can recall when ND was really prominent. Unless the product takes a drastic on field up turn soon continued renewals will not be a foregone conclusion and that is before even discussing Brian Kelly as the face of the franchise. Of course, if Kelly can hold on for another couple of years the police blotter at OSU might catch up with Urban as it did at UF and ND can back a Brinks truck up to bring Meyer home as the savior and allow him to exit once again just ahead of the posse.
