Have mixed feelings about UConn


Nov 19, 2012, 2:01 PM

on one hand, I realize this was a down year for many of the teams in the ACC (VT, GT, NCSU, and possibly UM). So I realize our strength of schedule should get better as these programs rebuild. So, bringing in a school that we can habitually stomp will give us another win and beating FSU (along with the previously mentioned teams in an up year) will be fine with me. Plus, I think everybody is aware that basketball is not and never will be able to consistently compete with top of the nation schools (i.e. Duke, UNC, UConn). However, we will benefit from the money those programs bring in during basketball season.

The only issue I have is this. What if UM, VT, GT, NCSU, and god forbid FSU start heading the opposite way. What if they continually suck. Then we would have to depend on a rivalry game with USuC and another big name opponent (and possibly ND) to help our SoS. In that event, UConn would only be another burden to the ACC Football Program. However, many would argue we are trading equals in one football and getting a boost in basketball.

So take it for what you will, but I don't see bringing in UConn as terrible, but I also don't see it as helping Clemson in any way. However, I don't see it hurting Clemson in any way either. I think it is better than what we had with MD though.

Do you have mixed feelings about Louisville?


Nov 19, 2012, 2:09 PM

Because I don't. That's who we need to get.

Actually I do.

Because I think once Charlie Strong leaves, they are gonna struggle for a long while. They have done well under him, but many people expect him to take the Arkansas job.

Bring on Louisville! (not going to happen)

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I don't

My only feeling for the add is dislike and my feeling toward the school in general is dislike. Since we have Pitt and Syracuse to improve basketball maybe we are going after UCONN to help women's basketball. Priorities!
