The BIG 10 is the 2nd most financially lucrative conference. They will pull a successful member from the ACC/PAC12/Big12 before they pull a bottom feeder with no fans from CUSA 4.0.They are a SMALL handful of spots higher than UCF in the US News and World Report rankings. They were also named an EMERGING Preeminent (not actually Preeminent) school by the Florida higher education system...before such designations were done away with. The one and only thing that got them that status before UCF was they have a much larger endowment than UCF...something UCF's new President has said will be a priority to improve.
Them acting like they are B10 worthy with the most prominent schools in the country is the very definition of delusional. 🤣 🤣 🤣
