Connecticut still would rather be in the ACC than stay in the Big East if given the choice, a source said. But the Huskies' administration expect that the ACC is in no rush to expand beyond 14 after adding Pitt and Syracuse. The Huskies are prepared for this to drag on for quite some time.

Swofford has said he is comfortable at 14, but not philosophically against 16. The ACC would likely want to add Notre Dame and then Connecticut as a 16th school if it were to add two more schools. But Notre Dame continues to maintain its desire to be an independent in football and keep all its other sports in the Big East.

Poor, poor UCan't

It’s going to be that much more depressing when/if Notre Dame comes and you’re still not in the discussion. You’re not getting in.

GO BC!

It's mystifying

why UConn thinks they have some inherent advantage over other schools that the ACC wants them. I still believe suing everyone they could in the ACC means they never get into the club.

They named Swofford in the suit … poor form.

I really hate UConn

A relative of mine who graduated from Maryland moved to Hartford for work decades ago and changed his college sports allegiance from MD to UConn. He’d cheer for UConn basketball over the Terps if they were battling for the national championship.

He’s one of the most annoying sports fans I know, which is part of the reason I’ve hated UConn for a while (not to mention the less-than-stellar characters they have picked up, both staff and players).

It seems that everything UConn has done over the past month has just reinforced my opinion that UConn would be an awful addition to the ACC.

Please, ACC, never take UConn. Never ever ever ever. Notre Dame, sure. Possibly Rutgers with ND. UConn … just say no.

Assumption is the mother of all @#%-ups.
