Message: [QUOTE="CL82, post: 4318102, member: 44"] LOL, you might as well say UConn and Providence will block Central Connecticut from joining the Big East. It’s an easy statement to make, because neither school is even remotely close to being a suitable candidate. To be honest, I don’t understand the thought process behind that. A strong UMass would be great for UConn and vice versa. When Connecticut made its first trip to the Hockey East championship game, UMass fans were very supportive. Having another national rival close enough that fans can easily make the trip would be good for both programs. Yeah, there’s no doubt that you’ll compete for recruits, but competition is a good thing forcing the competitors to each raise their game. That’s some thing that the BCU administration never understood and their failure to understand it left them out on an island with their program wallowing in disinterest and failure. [/QUOTE]
