Message: [QUOTE="FfldCntyFan, post: 4692013, member: 71"] Please read what I wrote again as you obviously missed (not only) what I pointed out (but also a critical part of the transaction). If we were to move to the B-12 we cannot be viewed as being a BE program that is better than its B-12 counterpart. The comparisons would be (as I pointed out) the BE without us vs the B-12 without us. Which BE program (not including UConn) is better than Kansas? After removing those two, who in the BE is better than Baylor? Working down the list, pick whoever you believe is better of the next schools. Call me silly but I personally would like to wait and see Pitino and Cooley actually do something (at St John's and Georgetown respectively) before declaring this 1985 again. I do see the B-10 as the goal for our ultimate destination (and I am more confident than most here that a path to this exists) but that offer isn't materializing before 2032-2035 and it won't happen if we cannot improve on a number of levels. Improvement on those levels won't happen without improving our financial situation by a considerable amount and a step from the B-12 to the B-10 is far more reasonable than a step from the BE (a decade from now) to the B-10.
