UConn is "in the mix" for an ACC invitation, according to a source, though it appears none has been made yet.

UConn believes it fits the bill for the ACC better than Louisville on many fronts: the Boston-to-New York TV market, academics, geography and stability (the prevailing thought is that Louisville truly desires to be in the Big 12 and would still jump at that chance even after it joined the ACC). An ACC source noted that the conference's TV contract with ESPN is already set, so the addition of UConn wouldn't even affect that at this point. However, that contract could certainly be re-negoatiated if UConn joined the conference.
