The B12 is still kicking themselves for passing on the second-best program in Kentucky.
The Hilltoppers would have been a great addition to any conference.

BTM called me last night at 11:30pm
Let's put it this way...
We, here, have nothing left to say on B12 Expansion.
UC/UCONN big favorites.

Greg Flugaur ‏@flugempire · 3h3 hours ago
We have nothing left to add.
BTM/B1G is convinced if Texas pulls trigger it has to be UC/UCONN.

Greg Flugaur ‏@flugempire · 3h3 hours ago
B12N metrics will show UCONN is slightly above or even on "break-even line" of producing value "$" for B12 Conference with Conf Network

Greg Flugaur ‏@flugempire · 3h3 hours ago
The rest of the candidates for B12 expansion will be muddied together...not much difference in value in B12N metrics.
This is from BTM.

Greg Flugaur ‏@flugempire · 3h3 hours ago
If it's something other than UC/UCONN, BTM and B1G perception of what is going to happen...well...they will be shocked.

Greg Flugaur ‏@flugempire · 3h3 hours ago
So we @flugempire will have nothing else to offer in coming weeks in regards to B12 Expansion.

Greg Flugaur ‏@flugempire · 3h3 hours ago
I understand many disagree with BTM...I get it.
I disagreed with him on April 23rd when he stated ASU HCKY not going to B1G.
I was wrong.

Greg Flugaur ‏@flugempire · 3h3 hours ago
Memphis fans are confident...that's good, I understand.
But graduation rate @Memphis at this time not good by to get it done.

Greg Flugaur ‏@flugempire · 3h3 hours ago
UCF is a great candidate...but until ESPN gets onboard with UCF candidacy it's not happening...we think it's too late.

Greg Flugaur ‏@flugempire · 3h3 hours ago
Last word:
UC/UCONN to B12 if UT pulls the trigger.
If not....we will be here to take the heat we deserve.
Have a good day.

Dooley ‏@DooleyMcStitch · 3h3 hours ago
@flugempire Did BTM give an estimated timeline? Or all balls in UT court?

Greg Flugaur‏@flugempire
@DooleyMcStitch
No he didn't. But he did indicate that he thought most in B12 knows what to expect from data later this month.

Martin borg ‏@Martyaborg · 3h3 hours ago
@flugempire your wrong. BYU has even better metrics then uconn. Run the numbers.

Greg Flugaur ‏@flugempire · 3h3 hours ago
Keep in mind...
In B1G metrics/eyes/vision among G5 schools..UCONN has highest value (among G5)
B12 will show same results w B12N metrics.

Joseph L ‏@jpl04002 · 2h2 hours ago
@flugempire Have you seen this interview (from yesterday) with UConn AD David Benedict? Seems pretty confident.

Greg Flugaur‏@flugempire
@jpl04002 Thanks for sharing. Yes UCONN does seem confident. We believe they know the numbers.....so they are confident

Greg Flugaur ‏@flugempire · 48m48 minutes ago
FOX 61 and UConn Athletic Department team up for scholarship program

Yeah...UCONN AD talks like BTM when it comes to UCONN's future.
Confidence.

Could some one send Steve the chart showing UConn players in NFL compared to the current Big 12 members?

...and add our last 10 years of history including the 2 Big East championships and Fiesta Bowl appearance. Oh and also include the 2 wins vs Baylor.

I love reading this!
Jim@aol.com
It took me a while to get someone to talk about it, but I found out what that big cheer was at the ACC meetings. It is great news!

Jim@aol.com
Swofford and Swarbrick announced that Notre Dame has agreed to join the ACC as a full time member! The reaction in the room was understandable.

Jim@aol.com
Condition is that ACC Network is started and ND keep their NBC deal, maybe some kind of money deal as well.

Jim@aol.com
It looks like it is going UConn for #16. I don't love it but they bring the equivalent of a top 20 DMA. It is the best G5 pick up available.

Jim@aol.com
Temple was being vetted as well, but they are just not a big enough player in Philly.

Jim@aol.com

Leahy has agreed to hold his nose and accept UConn. Bates had no issue with them. His dealings with Connecticut have been fine.

Jim@aol.com

I'm not thrilled about UConn, but if that's what it takes to get a network, so be it. I look at it as another easy win in football every year. Hopefully we won't take too big a hit in SOS.

Jim@aol.com

Just my opinion here, but I think UConn only got the nod to block a Big 12 network. ACC was very close to being in trouble here. Fortunately, the Big 12 is the Big 12, lol.

Could totally be a troll, so I won't get my hopes up until there is an announcement.

I'm supremely confident our long time in the desert is about to end.

In July we can all laugh on the B12 and how they blew it. Seriously, w/o they have no basis for a successful tv package.

ACC or B1G? one of them is coming for us in order to seal the deal on NYC.

Jim@aol?

aol? America online?

The guy's still on dial up?

Oh yeah. He's totally credible.

IIRC, Bill Simmons still uses an AOL account. You can have HSI and still use an aol account.

That guy is trolling the realignment people like Mh ver3.

ND said last month that they have no plans to deviate from their independence of football.

Everyone says they are happy where they are until they announce a change.

I miss the fax machine sounds and 30 minute page download speeds.

Dern unappreciative kids nowadays have access to in their pocket.

We had to bar the door and spend and afternoon waiting for a download.

And god forbid you lost your internet connection and had to start over.

(Edit - "prom" is not the word I wrote, but I'm sure you know what i mean).

Annoying, AOL log-on screech of yesterdecades and Norton's bcu association aside, he may just have some media insights as AOL's Global Head of Media Sales. If in anyway any related comments suggest UConn's rescuing itself from AAC island, I'll run with Norton's comments despite his bcu connection. Norton AOL Corp
