Message: [QUOTE="pj, post: 1598457, member: 2524"] On B1G metrics BC loses on every parameter compared to UConn. State flagship, market size (UConn draws as much in NYC as BC does in Boston; UConn is centrally located in the NY-New England region where the B1G lacks a presence), research-level academics, athletic success and facilities, fanbase. BC is a nice undergraduate college in a major city. It got lucky to get into the ACC where the other schools are now subsidizing it. The idea that Notre Dame will compromise its own interests to negotiate on behalf of BC for a move from ACC to B1G (in place of, e.g., improving its own situation by reducing the length and amount of the buy-in) when the ACC is a great fit for BC, flies in the face of both Notre Dame's history and common sense.
