I'm no BC fan, despite marrying an alumn, and generally pulling for the BC hockey team over BU.  But they did have a pretty good run post Flutie.  Produced some very good NFL quarterbacks, in Hasselback and Ryan with Folely drafted high and never panning out.  So I do think we UConn fans tend to unfairly underate the program based on the last few years of utter and complete failure.  The football program has had more success than basketball, where they're rarely strung together good teams for more than a season or two. 
 
Fr. Leahy was a lousy manager, Gene D was an outright  that sank the athletic department with his arrogance and stupidity.   But it is time to put that aside.  If BC can today recognize the horrendous mistakes of its past, we can both be stronger for it.  The best thing in the world that could happen to BC football is for UCon to join the ACC and play them every year.  I know BC fears it, but it would help BC a ton in driving interest.  Nobody in Boston will ever give a crap about GT, Wake or those other southern schools.  BC is desperate for a rival.
