sader 1970, excellent post -- must admit that I am a little more optomistic after reading it -- though I must admit not moving into the ECAC will be a huge downer for me and a big blow to what has the potential to be a nationally competitive program-- on the UNLV front, the school never had an academic rep. to begin with -- the schools that did -- like BC, Georgetown, etc. -- saw the overall academic quality of the student body increase as their teams became more successful --

Two things:

I guess you had to be there, but don't take the reference to UNLV out of context. I'm probably not doing the comment justice but I took the point to be that it would be good to do well in BB but if you don't already have the academic reputation to be attractive, JUST winning in BB isn't going to get you better quality students. Thus, the juxtaposition of Duke being sucessful but UNLV not.

Second, another individual, a very reliable source, said that they are in the process of creating what amounts to a athletic booster club. The person telling me this was struggling with the right terminology but when I said "you mean a booster club?", the response was in the affirmative.
