This has been alluded too in a numeber of threads but I think a candid discussion on the motives of ESPN blocking us from P5 status is a worthy subject.
Do the talking heads go out of their way to denigrate UConn at every turn?
In fact if true it's really a big story if not nationally than certainly in Connecticut.
Maybe even a worthy political issue.
What exactly were UConn's concession to ESPN in negotations for the AAC contract?
What exactly did we give up?
What are tier 3 rights and how much are they worth
What type of rating did UConn men and women and provide ESPN ?
Can they be translated into $$$$
What beyond money are ESPN's motives in downgrading UConn?
If it's possible to monetize the effect of blocking us from advanvancing we could have more certainty in their motives
