Message: [QUOTE="omniorange, post: 18054, member: 636"] To complete the northeastern corridor strategy, the ACC needs both NYC and Philly. The best combo to get both is ND and PSU which is extremely unlikely. But IF they could persuade ND (since PSU is way more unlikely than the Irish), then Rutgers is actually the better option than UConn since ND + BC gives the ACC Boston's two favorite college football teams, ND + SU + RU gives the ACC 3 of NYC's top 4 favorite college football teams, and with ND + Maryland + RU + SU the ACC at least has some Philly inroads. Personally I much prefer UConn over RU. And in a bb-crazy league like the ACC, that may win day. Heck, the Irish might tell the ACC #16 will be UConn or else they aren't coming. ;) Still believe ND will try and stick it out as indy with their other sports with the bb schools in the Big East at least until 2015.
