Iowa guy basically revisits his thoughts from 2010 based on what has recently happened. Not sure if I read this before on this board. Sorry if duped.
Had all the current schools being thrown out today on his list two years ago. Comments on Uconn below.
"2010 Final verdict: At first blush UConn is an outer-rim candidate because it’s located outside of the traditional Big Ten setting. But the school has plenty of upside and the expansion decision is based more on the league in 2040, not 2010. If the league goes to 16 teams and wants to gain traction in the Northeast, it could do worse than Connecticut."
Interesting comments on Syracuse, Pitt (not a real option), and BC.
Definitely supports Delaney's push east...
