Did the UNC AD make a statement in this same timeframe? If so, I’d like to compare. If not, then these are the statements coming from the respective schools at this time.I understand your point, and don’t necessarily disagree, but a better analogy is to compare what Radakovich said to the North Carolina athletic Director, which was basically another flavor of what Dan said. a better comp would be the head of our board of trustees or at least the one who oversees sports making a comment at some point
Look, in some ways I find it hard to believe that given the situation, that Miami isn’t a take for anyone but the ACC and B12, but then again, Oregon and Washington were takes over Miami. And the Washington selection is what scares me because that tells me that the BIG and SEC put a premium on big state universities, especially the flagship schools.
So UNC and UVA would knock us down as would FSU, Clemson and possibly Cal/Berkeley as well. Then you get the Super-Private schools like Duke and Stanford with their academics and their resources which gel nicely with Northwestern.
And UNC and UVA will likely be tied to a P2 landing spot for NCSt and VT. No one’s carrying us along and we’re not a big state school nor an elite private school. We aren’t such a slam dunk.
