Can be no more than a conference comparison, SEC vs. AAC. Is not Ky. vs. UC.

The selling point has to be that its easier to make the playoffs or a New Years Six bowl at UC than it is at UK, Vandy, Purdue, Indiana.

Great point. We as fans may pay more attention to conferences than the kids do. They're looking at a relationship with the position coach recruiting them, the head coach, the athletic facilities, the campus, the uniforms--who knows what all. UC can win these battles and continue to point players to a recent Orange Bowl/Sugar Bowl in the not too distant past and access to a New Year's Day bowl in the near future. Far more than UK, Vandy, Purdue or Indiana can realistically offer even with their dollars and P5 pedigrees.
