BYU is a football brand. And they went independent at a time when it was easier to be independent.
Also they aren’t independent anymore so what are you even saying?
OSU and WSU? That’s not by choice. So again, what are you even talking about?
For football, UConn wasted its AAC opportunity. After Louisville, Pitt, Syracuse and WVU were gone we should have been head and shoulders above everything in that conference with Cincy as the other rival.
Instead Herbst and Manuel squandered it away. They didn’t resource football the right way...
In order for it to happen for us, several things that were always going to happen needed to not happen.
Alas, it was not close. We were oceans away. Stop torturing yourself.
Plus it’s not even certain that the Big 12 members would have voted us in.
Yeah. It was a consolation or a necessary evil.
And the PAC 12 had a bonkers year. You can’t tell me they couldn’t have declined the deal, and then gotten something better a few months later.
Much of this is driven by fear, cowardice, and jealousy.
I hate the SEC, but at least they have...
That was not the deal. Thats folklore.
And think about what you were saying. We were plan C.
And nobody was for implementing plan C.
This was not a thing that was going to happen.
Stop torturing yourself and embrace the truth.
You’re out to lunch. Even the article above indicates that UConn was the backup plan of Arizona fell through.
We weren’t even plan B. More like alternate plan C.
Stop talking.
He doesn’t have a plan. The schools have a plan and they vote on it. He never had the votes for UConn.
You’re so clueless. He doesn’t run the conference like an authoritarian dictator. He’s the errand boy for the member institutions.
UConn was used. The plan all along was to get the 4 corners and Utah.
Yormark just used UConn to let people think they had alternative. The Big 12 presidents and ADs were never on board with taking UConn. There might have been a few but it wasn’t enough to make a difference.
