Taking a cue from the GT to B1G thread we have currently operating, the B1G doesn't necessarily need adjacent universities.

B1G could grab OU the second they are available and scoop up UConn since they aren't tied to the ACC grant of rights.

If the choice is between Kansas and UConn I'm thinking UConn as the upside school.


The question is if the BIG 10 wants UConn. (small market) or get UMass. (Gillette Stadium, Boston market, similar rankings in academics as UConn.)
UConn has issues in football but so does Rutgers, Maryland, Indiana, Purdue. P5 level facilities but limitations in recruiting base.
UConn's men's basketball program appears to have followed the football program in falling off a cliff. I imagine that would give KU the edge, especially if OU tags along.
