UCONN would give the B12N NYC (7,368,320 cable households) + Hartford/New (945,250 cable households)

@theDudeofWV Households yes but eyeballs? I don't think so. Do you? Rutgers more likely than UConn imo. Just don't get the UConn enthusiasm.

@hihoze @theDudeofWV eyeballs hell yes! Uconn is the flagship university for sports net New York. Very high ratings and pregames are in NYC

@desrochers_ben @theDudeofWV How does Rutgers fare with the NYC market?

@hihoze @desrochers_ben UCONN would earn more advertising dollars than RU in basketball alone.

@theDudeofWV @desrochers_ben Why didn't B10 take Uconn over RU? B10 is smart and could have taken one or both. Why pass up UConn

‏@theDudeofWV   @hihoze @desrochers_ben RU has AAU status. UCONN does not. The B1G requires AAU status.

@theDudeofWV @desrochers_ben That did it. Got it. Forgive me for this but for me, UConn is no fit for B12. Too far away & not cultural fit

@hihoze @desrochers_ben Every expansion move has added the schools with the greatest amount of cable homes available.
