I am totally ignorant about college football; I scarcely notice Carolina's football team much less anyone else's.
My understanding is that the ACC wants programs that have established basketball AND football programs. And I seem to have caught some buzz that UConn has a negligible football program. Is that right? Or have I been listening to slanderous reports?
I'm starting to think, why not just go ahead and expand to 16 schools as soon as we can do so and maintain some decent standards, both athletically and academically.
I don't know about UConn's academic reputation, but they have obviously had outstanding success in basketball. Do they fit the bill academically and football-wise?
And too, it would be good to avoid habitual NCAA offenders, although Carolina has finally blown it with their football program in that department (never happened before to my knowledge).
Seems like Calhoun is in some hot water. Is it serious enough to impair their suitability as another ACC member?
Any feedback is greatly appreciated.
