Message: [QUOTE="WestCoastHusky, post: 1524062, member: 566"] Adding UCONN will open up new markets for the B12. B12 will get access to New England and the NYC TV markets. It will give B12 schools exposure out in the east where they don't have much right now. I really believe traveling is overrated. With fast airplanes today, traveling can be easier with a partner. WVU can be a traveling partner for UCONN for Olympic sports. UCONN can travel with WVU when going out to the Midwest. B12 teams can come out East and play WVU and UCONN in the same trip. It can be done to minimize disruption to student athletes. UCONN will more than hold its own when it comes to TV value. UCONN also brings two national basketball powers that will instantly enhance the B12 in both sports. While B12 is not as ideal as the B10, if that's the only option available we need to take it now. Who knows what the future will hold, the only thing I know is we need to get out of the G5 ASAP. [/QUOTE]
