Message: [QUOTE="orangetrojan, post: 545724, member: 1454"] Therein lies the problem, in the northeast people just dont care about college football, its all about the NFL. This sentiment is magnified in the New England corridor. I get adding L'ville, I was all for it because you saw the results on the field and the fact that the school's overall trajectory in athletics (FB and BB) and academics seem to be on the rise. From a business standpoint the ACC should be heavy on schools south of the mason-dixon line as those are the demographics that care more passionately about college football. With that passion comes the pressure to field a competitive team. During the fall, people in Connecticut are more concerned with uconn hoops, picking pumpkins, and getting a new pea coat than packing the FB stadium. As far as Cinci goes, unfortunately for them I think the ACC should only invite a school for quality growth, particularly in FB. I'm not sure they really bring that to the table. [/QUOTE]
