Message: [QUOTE="sutomcat, post: 417289, member: 27"] I believe FSU and Louisville have historical ties...didn't they play together for years in the Metro Conference? Have to believe they would strongly prefer UL. Other considerations: 1) taking UL now establishes a bridge to the Midwest. What is that important? I believe the talk of eventual consolidation to 4 superconferences. I think the Big 12 is the most logical candidate to be cannibalized; schools from the ACC, Pac 12, SEC and B1G and pick and choose to fill out their dance cards as needed. Getting UL makes it easier to take other schools from the Midwest/Texas/Big 12 regions. 2) No offense to UConn but they aren't going anywhere. UL might be grabbed up by the Big 12 at any time. Don't see that happening with Connecticut. They can be added when the proper time comes (hopefully when/if ND decides to join the ACC as a full member). [/QUOTE]
