Rutgers is miles ahead of us football-wise. And BC, Pitt, and Cuse are in the ACC, we wouldn't play them.
I'm an RU fan and I took it in its context as a compliment here!?! UConn FB is recovering from a terrible hire with PP but a few playmakers and they would be as competitive as Md and us in short order if HCBD pans out. Be happy were not in this position for now and let CR pan itself out. Remember they beat us last time with PP!!
Exactly. PP literally killed the program. With B1G revenue, UConn surely has the resources, commitment, track record now for getting guys to the NFL, and brand name(from hoops) to be very competitive in short order. Geography probably prohibits us from ever being top tier, but there is no doubt that UConn can compete on a national level.
Rutgers is one coach ahead of us in terms of growth. With Edsall, UConn was right there and a good coach with B1G affiliation would get us back to that level in one recruiting cycle. In terms of Pitt, Cuse, and BC, we wouldn't play them on the field but certainly would be recruiting against them. If we were in the B1G, we would crush them in recruiting and isolate atleast BC and Cuse to no man's land.
