First it was Bushgate, then Spygate, now it's Memogate. According to other internet sources, Kevin White's blueprint for success of the 7-4-1 model has gotten out and made public. ND starting in 2009 will have seven homes games, four away, and one neutral site game that will be used as an NBC home game. The Athletic Department and White have been working to make the Irish Barnstorm across the country for other Alums to see ND play and help with recruiting in other areas. Anyway, Dr. White was none too pleased to hear that the cat was outta the bag.
"It's probably not that serious. But Notre Dame is none too pleased that a memo regarding its future football schedules leaked out over the weekend, featuring some pretty intriguing possibilities for off-site games down the line.
The memo is a "working document," meaning that the crossing of many T's and the dotting of many I's remains to be done. Some of the games may never come to fruition at all; for example, Rutgers isn't even sure yet that it wants to play the Irish in the Meadowlands, period. Let alone set up a date and time for a game."
