Waaay back when, relations between the two schools were strained, to say the least. (Please correct me if I'm wrong, but) I seem to recall that the UConn AD's office got sideways with BC's. My recollection is that UConn, justifiably proud of its accomplishments, was viewed by BC as just a tad too arrogant, and that BC blocked UConn from entering the ACC. Over the years, any discussion o UConn getting into that league was followed by the phrase "if BC doesn't blackball us," which seemed a real possibility.
No one ever saw the two teams getting together, never mind for an exhibition doubleheader. I realize that it's unlikely that anyone has a definitive answer to this, so it's all speculation, but does anyone think that relations have thawed, and what might that mean for the future?
