That's not what started this. What started this was
@superjohn creating this wild notion that simply being agreeable to seeing Cinci on our schedule means we're longing to go back to the AAC. We've played Harvard, Yale, and Columbia recently, are people confusing us with the Ivy League now?
I brought up the fact there are teams we have no choice in playing that don't excite people too. Because while there is enthusiasm for playing in the Big East, it's not like they are all exciting programs. Just because we couldn't wait to escape the AAC, it doesn't mean Cinci doesn't deserve better. I'm sorry if it's just too complicated for you to grasp.
Okay, you'd rather play Rutgers or BC, cool. I've got no problem with that.
If your argument is "there are better teams to play". Then I'd just respond as you did. "thanks Captain Obvious".
The question was do we want to play them? I wouldn't mind replacing some teams on our OOC with them. Maybe you do. That's fine too.
You guys are creating strawmen to argue with. It's tiresome.
