@TeenLudi @gampel_2_msg @MH ver3 @GregRalph3 http://www.courant.com/data-desk/hc-uconn-attendance-down-20141210-htmlstory.html…. Did it include this too?

MH ver3 ‏@MH ver3 3h3 hours ago
@DocBunyan @TeenLudi @gampel_2_msg @GregRalph3 aside from the big boys attendance is a problem at most schools right now

MH ver3 ‏@MH ver3 3h3 hours ago
@DocBunyan @TeenLudi @gampel_2_msg @GregRalph3 it's due to economics, home entertainment-games on TV, this isnt just a Uconn problem.

MH ver3 ‏@MH ver3 3h3 hours ago
@DocBunyan @TeenLudi @gampel_2_msg @GregRalph3 on field success is also key. WVU tickets are down as well.

@DocBunyan @TeenLudi @gampel_2_msg @GregRalph3 we haven't exactly been world beaters in the Holgorsen era.

Storrs South ‏@gampel_2_msg 4h4 hours ago
@TeenLudi @MH ver3 @GregRalph3 doesnt make it wrong. I think @MattSchonvisky @DooleyMcStitch would have issue w u discrediting them w/o proof

Storrs South ‏@gampel_2_msg 4h4 hours ago
@TeenLudi @MH ver3 @GregRalph3 @MattSchonvisky @DooleyMcStitch both did the research and provide sources to reach reasonable conclusions

Storrs South ‏@gampel_2_msg 4h4 hours ago
@TeenLudi @MH ver3 @GregRalph3 @MattSchonvisky @DooleyMcStitch any conclusions contrary to these articles that I've seen are pure conjecture

Martin Ludi ‏@TeenLudi 4h4 hours ago
@gampel_2_msg @MH ver3 @GregRalph3 @MattSchonvisky @DooleyMcStitch Every person in that "area" watches UCONN? Come on.. Most could care less

Dooley ‏@DooleyMcStitch 4h4 hours ago
@TeenLudi @gampel_2_msg @MH ver3 @GregRalph3 @MattSchonvisky By this argument, are you saying everyone in CO watches CSU? Nope.

Martin Ludi ‏@TeenLudi 3h3 hours ago
@DooleyMcStitch @gampel_2_msg @MH ver3 @GregRalph3 @MattSchonvisky (3) competing schools for TV sets than NY market.

MH ver3 ‏@MH ver3 3h3 hours ago

Chris Alan ‏@Crusty1000 3h3 hours ago
@PromiscuousJawa Can't see ND giving up indendence

Utini ‏@PromiscuousJawa 3h3 hours ago
@Crusty1000 they will have to join a conf to get in the CFP. CFP access is much more limited and almost impossible for an independent to get

Utini ‏@PromiscuousJawa 3h3 hours ago
@Crusty1000 they no longer hold any leverage. College Football is bigger than Notre Dame now.

Chris Alan ‏@Crusty1000 3h3 hours ago
@PromiscuousJawa Do they know that????

Utini ‏@PromiscuousJawa 3h3 hours ago
@Crusty1000 the suggested Pod system would have allowed them to join ACC and still play all the traditional rivalry games.

Utini ‏@PromiscuousJawa 3h3 hours ago
@Crusty1000 without it they have to drop 1 to join.

Utini ‏@PromiscuousJawa 3h3 hours ago
@Crusty1000 originally the B12/ACC supported each other's deregulation amendments. Delaney had them split into 2 votes and voila.

Chris Alan ‏@Crusty1000 3h3 hours ago
@PromiscuousJawa Hope Big 12 adds two and fast...

Greg Flugaur ‏@flugempire 6h6 hours ago
@Expansion_Crush I don't mind people disagreeing with us...or giving me heat. It's all good. But there are people saying I'm somebody else

Greg Flugaur ‏@flugempire 6h6 hours ago
@Expansion_Crush I'm Greg Flugaur from Minnesota with a Wife and Dog. I have a couple of friends who have broken stuff through me.

And why are we bothering or do we care? Law schools are pretty comparable actually as grad programs (the only ones I am really familiar with). BU has a med school (good one), BC doesn't. BC campus is much nicer. Who cares?

Lol, I think Dooley is going to end up with a commentator gig. He'll be the Lunardi of conference realignment.

Not all. BC Law and education are considered by most to be better than BU's programs. BU's strength is in the sciences.

The insane thing, BC, BC, and Northeastern looked and felt like commuter schools up until the early 80's and academically overshadowed by Harvard. BC's took the attention that Flutie gave BC and ran it it in the mid 80's. John Siber transformed BU in the late 80's changing it from a private urban university to a leading private research university along the lines of NYU that culminated with achieving AAU status in 2012 (its low point was dropping football in 1997. Northeastern barely had an dorms in the early '90's.

BU has strength everywhere over BC except maybe a couple of the professional schools. Law and Business go to BC. Medicine and Communications to BU. But BU is stronger in both the sciences and in the Social Sciences, Humanities, Liberal Arts, Arts.

I think this is wrong. And this is coming from my family of BC/BU grads. In the profession anyway, BU over BC in all fields but Law and Business.
 
CallMeBruce said:
No, you're wrong. BC is classified as a university. The name hasn't changed from when they weren't because Boston University is already a thing. You want to go out on an island like this, then you do you, but acting like Swofford misspoke when he accurately characterized BC as a university is just plain wrong, and you should probably bow out of this argument.
Expand ...
In my book, BC is classified as a piece of *!
 
While I'll gladly sit back and watch you all talk about how my alma mater is a better academic school than our archrival (in reality, they prioritize very different segments of academia so comparisons between the two are a bit apples/oranges), this is a non-key tweets thread....
 
Lol. Mh ver on Hiatus


This will be my last set of tweets for at least a month. Getting threatened with legal action from the B10 conference

Ah, the Boneyard, where we can debate which Boston school has better academics. US News has BU/Questrom at #43 and BC/Carroll at #45 while Forbes has BU at #48 and BC is not ranked. From informal discussions, BU's business school is strong in management and operations while BC is stronger in accounting. When I was looking for a P/T MBA program in the early 2000's, I choose BU as Harvard and MIT/Sloan do not have P/T MBA programs and BU was considered the second best P/T program in the Boston area behind Babson and as I lived in Brookline, I had no interest in driving out to Wellesley at rush hour 2 to 3 days a week.

Counterpoint: Boston sucks.

Sorry couldn't resist a shot from down here in Yankees country ;)

They should threaten legal action against flugempire too with his fake Big Ten Man (BTM) that he uses.

All right, nutball.

For the purposes of indentication, let us know what school you're from so we can determine how best to relate to you.

Also, we'd like to instroduce you to our Florida State nut, Virginia nut and Rutgers nut. I think there's a Notre Dame nut here, too, but he only reads his own posts.

I love the finite term. He only has to stop for a month or so. I can see the letter.

"Dear Mr. Mhver, please cease and desist your crap... But you can start again in a month or two. Sincerely, The B1G."

I guess free information isn't free after all

I have a friend who sent multiple FOIA's to B10 offices and UNC and UVA.

A week later I get a letter from an Attorney on retainer from the conf nicely threatening me to stop talking about them on Twitter

For real?

So I am enlisting a couple of friends who are attorneys and they advised me to stop talking about it for at least 30 days.

I made the mistake of not hiding my identity very well in the beginning. Too many know my real name/Facebook/email.

I shall return!

From an academic viewpoint, BC's admissions rate (undergrad) is lower and its incoming freshman scores are higher than BU. BC's law, nursing and education program are better than BU's. BC also gets a bump in the numbers because it becomes 'the' school to go to for many of the old-school catholic families and catholic HS's in the region (BC High, Catholic Memorial, St. John's, Xavier, Madlen Catholic, etc.). BU has a medical, engineering, and bunch of other STEM oriented programs that BC does not have. BU's communications school is also very well respected. BU's business school, which I went to for my MBA part-time, is better than BC. BU also draws kids who want an urban school (like NYC) while BC has more of a campus like setting. They are both as expensive as heck. Thus, from an academic standpoint, its a wash as they are two somewhat different animals. BU is more like Northeastern, another big urban STEM school, while BC is closer to Holy Cross as both lean liberal arts.
Expand ...

I am telling you right now that in the Carnegies the BU depts in liberal arts and social sciences just blow BCs out of the water. This is probably a measure of where faculty would rather teach. Better faculty at BU. So... it's no surprise the higher test scores are at BC, because they have 1/3rd as many students. But BU has more productive faculty.
