I almost went to Leeds (or Sheffield) University, but decided they were not far enough away. (This was in the 70s, no TwoWrights not the 1870s)
Don't go much but I've noted the development of Leeds City centre, been over to see Yard Act and Suede at the Academy in the last year. Definitely has the big vibrant city feel no doubt and having the Uni's near the centre helps a lot, everything in the centre is compact and walkable apart from two things, the condition and location of Elland Road, why didn't they build a new better located stadium? The other is the absence of an old town. When you walked through Hull city centre didn't you go down to the old town, it's usually vibrant on a Saturday night and it is getting investment, unfair to compare to Leeds though so I'm not doing that and the new town is clearly dead.
