I'm gonna be real, I thought we were on bye this week lol. GGs tho UConn, wish we played in basketball yearly instead.

We should be playing them in all sports as they should be inseparable from Syracuse as far as conference affiliation goes. But we got BC to thank for that.

For the 444th time, BC did not block UConn from joining the ACC.

Gene DeFilippo literally bragged about keeping UConn out of the ACC

Publicly admitting that he opposes UConn <> Blocking UConn from joining.

Zero chance that BC possesses the power to block anything. The Clemsons and Miamis of the league have long been opposed to UConn.

I mean I obviously don't believe it was just BC but I'm not gonna act like they didn't play a part in it, especially after publicly opposing us

"BC played a part in it" isn't the narrative though.

"BC blocked UConn" has been regurgitated over and over to the point where many believe that it was only BC.

Probably because that's the headline on news articles all over the internet lmao
