Now, this is still the part of the JACC which houses an indoor track in
one half, and the rink in the other? Rolf, ND could admit all of South
Bend in that building for free, and it'd still be quiet. Give it time; in
5-10 years ND will probably build a new rink/hoop complex.

The Irish will indeed be a team to watch. My unofficial take on them
is they'll get all the Catholic players who aren't from Massachusetts.
Seriously: ND, love 'em or hate 'em, is one of those rare schools
that puts a strong commitment behind each and every athletic program.
(Does it sacrifice academics, i.e., "Tarnished Dome?" Another
debate entirely, which I'll avoid.) Take a look at how many of their
"non-revenue" sports are ranked nationally every year.
