No consequences. It's like a preseason NFL game except both teams are legitimately trying to win (while not risking injury and getting as many players as possible playing time).

They redid the stairs, fixed the roof (dark tiled ceiling now), and took down the old press box and replaced with upper level ADA seating. So minor stuff but got at least some love.

Kinda, they still have some behind the scenes stuff to do along with finishing the bunker suites and redoing the upper suites. I believe they said they aren't officaly complete until next summer.

Food buffet, band, speeches from AD and Calhoun. It was a fun time, definitely got you hyped for the game.

They’ve got me hyped, place looks great.

Yea Amtrak needs to run late night trains. It's even more of a problem for Boston where you dont have the commuter rail option.

Though they didn’t widen them, I will say removing the orange section signs does give a much more open feel.

Yes, Benedict said they’ve negotiated a new contract that is much better for UConn. They’ll get a cut of the premium seating.

The previous contract was back loaded. So schools made less in the beginning and more in the end. But in total it was still a 12 year $500 million deal vs a 6 year $480 million deal. There are also other revenue streams like tournament credits but those are the apples to apples numbers.

It went from $42 to 80 million a year. That’s nearly double.

Any way around their paywall? I’d get a subscription but they massively upped the cost.

Just announced Cardi B for April. They seem to be following through in considerably boosting concerts. They have been announcing a new one almost every week. For comparison Cardi B plays MSG, Prudential Center, TD Garden, then Hartford, followed by Xfinity in Philly and Capitol One in DC. Can't...

Hartford schedule is incredible this year. We get Michigan State, Texas, Nova, and St. John’s. I can’t see how anyone wouldn’t be thrilled with the split.

I hope this ends the argument over this, net cost: “The Huskies in men’s basketball net $600,000-plus for a sellout in Storrs, $1 million-plus with a sellout in Hartford.” CT Post
