Or we say no. We can play them in MSG without a return trip. The entire point is to get them playing a road game.

If we can get them to play us at MSG with no other games tied to that one, great. If they balk and claim that if they're playing us in our backyard, so a return is needed, we take it (in Charlotte or Raleigh).

We can never play too many games at MSG against a name opponent. It's impossible, I did the math.

Math!

It's a lot like science, but different.

There is no way Duke would come to us and insist on MSG as the northeast version of a home and home.
If they did, Hurley would be running to his favorites in the press talking about how we are being disrespected again.

K spent much of his career dissing UConn and refusing to set up series with us. Would only play us at Cameron or at a neutral site. Screw them all. Let them beg for several years first. I wouldn't want to give them any road to respectability, especially through us. We can meet them in the tournament and stuff them there. 77-74
Meh…. Didn’t like K all that much.
And UConn is the Big Dog now.
They are calling shots and making the rules.
The fact Duke is asking means they know it too.
Great for fans, great for game, and probably boosts UConn’s media value.

We've already played them at MSG. Getting them to Gampel would be the most fun. Uconn needs to build up their campus experience and this would help with that.

Hartford?! C'mon, Johnny! This is to showcase the home courts of the 2 most elite programs of the last 30 years. Show the camping out, put ESPN on campus, College Gameday, the student sections. What do you want to see? The students file off the buses from Storrs onto Main St? The dusty Whaler banners in the rafters?
You should respect the Hartford loyal season ticket holders who make seat donations every year.

needs to be Charlotte which is about 2.5-3 hours away, Duke is closer to Raleigh than UCONN is to Hartford
