Wait....you mean Ebola wasn't really generated by Obama? So, that means Donald Trump is the most trustworthy man in America? Come on.......This thread is about on the same level of lunacy as the Obama generating Ebola argument
ESPN will toot UConn's horn loud and clear when they deserve it but you got to win a few that your not supposed to. That gets attention. That gets you on Sports Center, not losing to USF, SMU and Army. Beat BYU and Mizzou. That's a guaranteed ticket to Sports Center.
No, that is BD's agent who will be telling ESPN that his guy is a hot commodity which they will then talk up.Pffft.
They'll just call them the 'upsets of the century' or something, toss out a few back-handed compliments and then start shopping Diaco to every open 'P5' gig.
Whoopty-doo...
Many have remarked , or suggested, how ESPN may be going "out of its way" not to help UConn.
Saw their ESPN College football preview in which they suggest UConn's chances of winning AAC title is less than 1%.
The chances of beating any of our opponents, outside of Villanova, is less than 30%, and some odds are far worse than that.
Of course UConn has no one worth mentioning among elite AAC players.
I don't see why our Governor goes out of his way monetarily to keep them in the state, when in return ESPN basically "spits" on the State's most valuable commodity.
Don't want to upset any one, but I've become very...to put it in politically correct language, annoyed.
EXACTLY... Anyone remember back in the days when we were in the BE going to bowls every year... We were mentioned in the national conversation! You have to win to be included. Why do they talk about Bosie State, even tho they are in the Mtn. West (a non-P5 conference)? Because they win, consistantly. Diaco will get this ship turned around and back in the right direction. I don't buy into the odds makers who don't know this team, or follow it's progression and roster like we all do here on the BY. My prediction is 6-6... Anything less than going bowling this December is a failure IMO for this team. 33.5 underdogs to Missouri may be the truth however...ESPN will toot UConn's horn loud and clear when they deserve it but you got to win a few that your not supposed to. That gets attention. That gets you on Sports Center, not losing to USF, SMU and Army. Beat BYU and Mizzou. That's a guaranteed ticket to Sports Center.
