As a UMass homer, lets be honest, UConn belongs in the MAC. Sam should not join the AAC, a lateral Group of Five conference with too much travel involved. Western Michigan !!
I honestly can't tell if Fishy is just screwing with you guys with this U Toronto BS.
I guess I'll give him the benefit of the doubt. I can't believe anyone is taking it seriously.
It's a message board. Take the stick out of your butt.
LOL. You will argue to the death about Harvey Mudd College being ranked above Reed College in the humanities.
Get a sense of humor.
When? After you've posted a dozen consecutive times about the state university at buffalo?
When people are having light conversations. That's when. do it in context. Don't show up to church acting like Rodney Dangerfield. Not the proper time. On a message board when people are talking about U. Toronto, relax.
Guy I was always relaxed. I honestly can't tell if Fishy was serious about Toronto. Either he was being sarcastic and laughing at the idiots taking Toronto seriously or HFD has pushed him over edge.
Other downside:
The NCAA would have to change its rules to allow UToronto, or any other Canadian school, to play in Division I athletics.
It's a combination of two things:
1. We're hyper sensitive
2. We win tons of championships so its fun to kick us when we're down.
Not if Pudge shows up in this thread. Toronto to the Americanadian. McGill to the Ivy. UBC to the MWC or Pac.People are just talking about it. No one thinks we're adding Toronto. Oh my god.
I get the sentiment, but knocking a school for playing football off campus is a little like the pot calling kettle black.
Yes, the State will not fully fund us but as part of the 15oth anniversary, the athletic department's goal is to raise 33 Mil. In the past month we have received a 2.25 Mil and a 2.5 Mill gift so we are now over 20 Mill towards the 33 Mill goal for 2015.
Hey. UMass won a championship in football more recently than 1869.What bothers me about Rutgers is basically its UMass with a bigger football stadium.
Steve not flaming you here, but NIT, really? Good luck to your teams, hope we play again, but NIT, really?
Katz seems to be well meaning.UConn's rise to prominence was heralded by its NIT championship. It is a building block for UMass. Good for them. I too hope we create a football series. I'd rather play UMass and Buffalo than Western Michigan.
