it would obviously be a long shot for the Bulls to pull off, for all the reasons above and more.  that said, nothing is impossible including Rutgers having a competent athletic dept.  very very highly improbable but not impossible.

I get that its a loooong way from where NY counts, but so are we.  I have exactly 0.0 rooting interest for the bulls.  I know a few people who went there, but many more who stayed in-state at albany and bing (if they didn't go to a private).  when I was looking at colleges, buffalo never ever crossed my mind.

brands can be built, so can winning culture.  again, not easy by any means but doable.  if UB had NIU's fb track record and a really good BB team (dont even know who would be considered a top MAC bb school) they might have some sports kevorka.  I also fully understand they do not.

2 questions:

If there was a public flagship of NYS with competitive athletics and AAU status, would the B1G be interested?

Is there any SUNY school better poised to take a shot at becoming a state flagship than UB, esp athletically?
