> In practice, this means you need to band pass before the ADC, right? i.e. "signal" in this case is the entire input to the ADC and not just the particular modulated signal you care about

Right and right.

And, you’d normally want that to be a contiguous 100 MHz band of frequencies (you could in principle have multiple discontiguous bands that add up to 100 MHz if they are spaced right (they don’t fold down to the same base frequencies), but that would be quite an unusual application).
