[COLOR=#000000][FONT=Calibri]Not many public universities are Michigan (call it UVA, UCLA & Cal, maybe UNC, Wisconsin, Texas).  That said, UConn is not at Indiana’s level (yet), even if US News ranks UConn higher (#63) than Indiana (#83).[/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=#000000][FONT=Calibri]Really, the only advantages UConn has over Indiana is: women’s basketball, a D1 Hockey program, and UConn is a closer (140 miles) to its secondary TV market (NYC #1) than Indiana (230 miles) is to its (Chicago #3) and UConn also has a secondary TV market (Boston #7, 80 miles).  UConn does have its immediate TV DMA to itself though as Indiana does have to compete with the Colts, Pacers and Purdue.[/FONT][/COLOR]
