Cincy, Houston, UCF and BYU

[Hoophound]

I can be mistaken but I think I read somewhere that UConn was the 5th best out of the 10 or 12 schools that sent in their application the last go round. The top 4 was the schools that got the invite now in BYU, Cinn, Houston, and UCF then we were the 5th best option. I’m sure it had to do with geographic.

As I recall, UConn was said to be second only to BYU in value, which made sense given our basketball teams and area. That resulted in quiet confidence around UConn that we had a good shot. They didn't realize the whole exercise was a farce.

I'm sure our value has slipped some, but nothing that a good football team can't fix almost instantly.
