UConn or UofL ???

[DNABB5]

As a one on replacement for the Terps.

What's your choice?

The old blood said they would never take a partial member, and while the general "commuter school" stuff has some merit, it is not like UofL degree is toilet paper. They do have a very good Medical Research program and I think one of the best Dental schools. The information is the same you know.

UofL makes $$$. Their athletic department is run very well, they have passionate fans and would travel to a lot of away games in the ACC I think. It really seems like a no brainer to me.

Personally, I would much rather have UConn twisting back to irrelevance ala 1988.

I'd go with L-Ville.

 

[Chip]

Neither...yet.

But gun to my head, Louisville.

 

[Millhouse]

Neither...yet.

But gun to my head, Louisville.

no reason for anyone to ever put a gun near your head. that target would make a sniper marksman of ray charles

We're way past the point of holding either one of these programs back for our benefit, particularly UConn.

We thought we could hold back Rutgers. Wasn't happening.

I hate the Huskies. But I want them in the ACC. Not even close.

 

[AirForceOrange]

Louisville

 

[Marsh01]

Louisville...

 

[cuseguy]

Louisville belongs in the Big 12.

Not the ATLANTIC COAST CONFERENCE.

People out there couldn't find the Atlantic Ocean with a map.

Think long term: it's about affluent markets and institutional fit and coherent geography: UConn is the state University of Conn and could be the key to the New England market that BC is unlikely to be. Combined with BC, SU, Pitt, ND, it could help the ACC gain northeast markets.


The Big 10 could have added UL if they wanted a great BB team. They chose RU instead.


That said: it will be interesting to see what the ACC does.

Norte Dame

 

[Sufran]

I would rather see Louisville for competition but Uconn makes more sense. I hate Uconn!

 

[OHIORANGES]

For me U of L over UCONN, not even close. Overall I think it is a good school and I can't stand UCONN. Living in Cincinnati, I'm only a couple of hours away from Louisville.

 

[Toga]

West Virginia, if in fact no one in the B12 has actually signed the new GOR.

 

[TexanMark]

Both are much smarter...gun to head...Louisville but only if everyone signs a GOR.

UL - Academics will improve 50 spots just by adding them to the ACC
