Got to say, I’m in the ‘retire Indy’ Final Four camp. For the amount of money being spent, it’d be nice to have a decent meal or water that didn’t taste off (is that just me?). We desperately need a dome that is east of Indy and north of Atlanta.

How was the turnout? Obviously we are outnumbered, but i saw a post on the Illinois board about how UConn fans where loud.

In for Section 153. Let’s go!

Just walking around and will report what is easily contradicted by data. UConn immediately sold out its 4k allotment. 4k out of 70k is close to 6%, assuming not another single ticket sold. Same would obviously be true for AZ.

Which we will eventually, at which point their stature diminishes greatly. You’d think they’d at least try to entice us to want to stay.

They were. They had no ratings and saw the writing on the wall. We just pulled 3M for a single WBB…that is more than every DePaul team can muster combined in a season. And separately we’d be fine..we hired Hurley and his limit is not bound by conference. This relationship is clearly to the...

The One America Network to pick up a positive story on Connecticut. We probably have awhile to wait.

Not true. Their media rights would be significantly decreased without us. This idea that the Big East was somehow selfless in inviting us is comical. They invited us back for their own salvation as an alternative to actually investing in themselves, particularly on the WBB side. We owe them...
