Message: [QUOTE="Hoophound, post: 5356193, member: 271"] There’s some issues that Northeasterners might not understand. Boston isn’t a place that kids from the South dream about going for the most part. It’s a liberal, northern city with bad weather. On top of that, BC no longer does anything in sports, so they have literally no free marketing from prime time or playoff type television exposure. No one watches them. People can minimize the importance of our basketball in the big picture, but the UConn brand gets tons of free marketing by winning stuff. BC gets nothing. I’m pretty sure they have a lot of legacy students and certainly, many Northeastern students. On top of all that, the football hotbeds aren’t exactly fans of the Catholic Church. They are full of Evangelicals. [/QUOTE]
