To quote Rabbi David Silver (son of Harav Eliezer Silver TZ”L) stated to me personally a few times. I learned in YU before it was YU when it was Yeshivas Rabbeinu Yitchok Elchanon. I don’t think based on the conversation I had with him that he considered YU in the current format to be the same makom Torah that he learned and received smicha from. (but I could be wrong, I never asked him that question specifically)
