A hater of what? A rival who's former athletic director stated publically that he and one of the largest sports and entertainment media outlets conspired to prevent the natural growth and order of an institution less than 100 miles to the southeast? You understand that this is a UConn message Board, yes? The hatred of rivals should be expected, especially if you support the rival.
BC has a large endowment, absolutely, but that does not necessarily impact the athletic department. Fr. Leahy's handling of Jim O'Brien, DeFilipo's ultimatum to Jagozinski, the hiring of Spaziani and the tail end of Skinner's tenure set the revenue generating sports back by at least a decade. Skinner didn't even successfully recruit a 1st year freshman before his final season. Fan support has eroded at BC due in no small part to the success of the 4 major pro sports. The master athletic plan may be BC chasing position #5 and could very well be throwing good money after bad, especially in the near term.
BC has the same problem as UConn: Underexposure. I listen to WEEI on NESN and during every drive time commute (living and working East of The River allows me to tune into 103.7 out of Providence pretty well). Mikey Adams is a Connecticut guy with a focus on the pros, and Salk & Holley don't mention college really at all. Now the Meterparel is no longer on the D&C show, BC has lost almost 100% of its advocacy on Boston highest rated sports network. Further 103.7 broadcasts Providence Friars Basketball, not BC (Granted the signal originates in Providence). I've given you the perspective of coverage from down here, but my friends and family in the Boston area tell me that BC does not resonate inside 128 let alone the rest of the Northeast.
