RELATED: What Notre Dame AD Jack Swarbrick said about Irish independence on The Dan Patrick Show
On the Dan Patrick Show, broadcasting live from Dublin, Ireland, Wednesday, Notre Dame director of athletics Jack Swarbrick was asked at what point Fighting Irish football was the closest it has ever been to joining a conference. The answer was not any time in the last two years, when conference realignment has been most chaotic.

It was a decade ago when Notre Dame’s Olympic sports left the crumbling Big East for the Atlantic Coast Conference.
“I don’t know if it was particularly close, but if we hadn’t been able to find a home for our Olympic sports with the ACC, maintaining football independence would have been problematic,” Swarbrick told Patrick. “We needed a partner who would allow our Olympic sports to participate at the level we want them to.”
All these years later, the ACC is a conference on the ropes just like the Big East was back then. It’s not nearly as strong as the Big Ten or Southeastern Conference. That’s alarming for Notre Dame considering national powers like Irish lacrosse, basketball, soccer, etc. all compete in the ACC.
And then there’s Notre Dame, still riding the wave of independence.
Swarbrick told Patrick “all the major conferences are a possibility” when Patrick asked if Notre Dame might join the ACC as a football member at some point. It wasn’t a walking back of recent comments from him swearing by independence. Rather, it was an inferential admission that the landscape is ever-changing and that ND might one day need to join a conference.
