If, as is rumored, the BCS conferences ultimately did decide to leave the NCAA, that could leave the Irish in the lurch. They'd likely be invited to come join the new sanctioning body (say what you will about Notre Dame, but they do draw a crowd) yet joining a conference might be a required part of the deal. Or they could stay behind, remain independent, and compete in an NCAA of diminishing relevance.
I've heard once or twice elsewhere about the BCS conferences forming a "new" NCAA but is that realistic? How would they make it work for the non-revenue sports? Or would they disband simply for football? I just find it hard to believe the BCS schools really want to break up from the NCAA.
