Message: [QUOTE="NKR1978, post: 1020169, member: 186"] Pluses for UConn - a state of eyeballs and cable subscribers for an ACC network that will likely get on basic cable in the state. Content - strong sports overall to create interesting programming for an ACC network. Flagship state university. Glad Louisville is coming in, but UConn is a bigger brand and after losing Maryland it would be nice to bring in a school that allows the ACC to own a state. Solidifies NYC because the B1G with RU, PSU, Michigan + UConn will have a bigger footprint than us on our own and UNC and Duke bandwagon fans can bring. Minuses - bad regular season tv ratings. No football tradition. Declining attendance for basketball in spite of their success. Clemson and FSU will hate it. Pluses might outweigh the negatives. Jesus, I just talked myself into wanting UConn in the ACC. [/QUOTE]
