UCONN - I can't stand that school and don't want to share a conference with them
I don't recall ever coming across any UCONN fan that wasn't an arrogant blowhard. They have an even bigger entitlement mentality than the typical Rutgers fan had. If you want to see a lot of delusion, go to the boneyard. LOL, a site for morons...

Anyways, just a rant. The one statement that gets under my skin more than anything else is the belief that "UCONN was a done deal to the ACC, but BC kept them from joining and they ended up inviting Pitt instead". Why that makes no sense to me is because when UMD gave notice of their departure, they had a SECOND chance to get into the ACC except..."BC nixed UCONN in the 11th hour plus Jurich made a crazy sales pitch that got UL in. UCONN was a done deal prior to this, but UL snuck in behind their backs at the last second".

Don't worry. Uconn will NEVER be in the ACC.

The ACC wanted Pitt. We're not second class citizens. If they didn't, I doubt they would have scheduled FSU to open the ACC season at Heinz.

By George, I think he's got it!

Trust me, when you look at Pitt, 'Cuse, ND and U of L - the ACC got the 4 teams they wanted (well, SOME folks wanted WVU and SOME wanted UConn, but I don't think anyone had a problem with the 4, er, 3 and 5/8 we got).
