Message: [QUOTE="Plebe, post: 4716567, member: 6927"] UConn went from 8-5 in 2010 to 5-7 in 2011. Not exactly falling off a cliff. All of the ACC invites except Louisville's were handed out by September 2012, so it's quite debatable whether the 2012 season had any impact at all, but even then, it was another 5-7 season, not by a long shot the worst UConn's seen. And Louisville's 2012 season was the first time they'd been more than one game over .500 in six years. The big advantage they had was that no existing ACC members were blackballing them. I'm not convinced that the difference between 8-5 and 5-7 was the difference between in or out. Especially when you see how mediocre Syracuse and Pitt were leading up to their invites. [/QUOTE]
