Gene Smith hopes Notre Dame considers joining the Big Ten following the conference's addition of USC and UCLA: 'I've always felt like they should be in a conference.'
Ohio State is set to take on Notre Dame in each of the next two seasons as part of a home and home series. But if Gene Smith had his preference, those matchups would be a regular occurrence.for the Big Ten beginning in 2024, there’s been plenty of speculation that the conference may look to expand even further. One of the top candidates is Smith’s alma mater, which he hopes will consider joining the Big Ten in the near future.
Ohio State president Kristina Johnson said Friday that the forthcoming moves aren’t yet clear, but are inevitable nonetheless. Smith believes the Big Ten and SEC were already well-positioned at the top of the food chain among Power 5 conferences even before their latest expansion efforts. Now though, the divide has been made all the more evident.
Although the Big Ten’s expansion seemed like a direct response to the SEC’s move to acquire Texas and Oklahoma, Smith said that was not the case. Rather, the Buckeye athletic director said the financial benefits from the Big Ten’s new TV deal with USC and UCLA in the mix had more to do with the decision-making.
