Cincy and Miami (FL) to play in 2014, 15

[jbdphi]

When in your entire lifetime has BC been a powerhouse? Let me explain this more succinctly: in all its years in the BE, BC never once managed to finish higher than 3rd place.

And where in my dialogue did I use the word powerhouse? Nice strawman.

The point I was making is that it is very difficult to predict who is going to be really good in five years versus someone who could be mediocre or poor. I can guarantee you that right now a lot of people are assuming that UConn will suck for the foreseeable future.

I think Cincinnati has done a good of getting this home and home with a P5 team in Miami. They also made a payday scheduling a solitary away game at Michigan. Michigan may not be a powerhouse in five years but because of the name on the front of the jersey, you think this would be fine (even though in five years the players and potentially coaches will be completely different when they play the game) as opposed to doing a hypothetical 2-1-1 series with someone like a BC.

Teams that have been historically bad (i.e. Baylor, Duke,. Vanderbilt) have managed to become respectable and even good programs in recent years. The whole point is, you never know.

The funny thing is UConn is 5-1 against those teams and should be 6-0 had it not been for the first disastrous decision of the P era.

1. UConn should NEVER play a "HOME" game in any other state than Connecticut unless its a bowl game.
2. A series with ND would be nice.
3. A series with BC needs to happen soon, and is coming...
4. Getting Penn State at the Rent or a PAC-12 school in to play us in East Hartford should be on our want list too.
