TV Markets and recruiting
Travel partners with WVU
Buffer in case of pilfering
What is the drawback to UC--what do you see as their weakness as to not being a viable candidate?
I don't remember where I heard it, but I believe it was the WV AD who said the travel partner thing was irrelevant bc it is still far enough away from Cincinnati that they'd take charter flights.
