I get that. At $50 per ticket I'm expecting between 10-15k UConn fans to make the 1.5 hour drive. We'd have 30k plus at Rentschler but we wouldn't be getting the $1.2 payday.
There's really only one reason to do this. Money. Every other reason is nonsense and false justifications for doing it.
Giving up a home crowd at Rent.
Having less UConn fans in the building.
Horrible sight lines.
The continually brought up and overrated "exposure" for the school...
@Jumbo Pinkel if you're a big fan of pizza ignore this piece. It's well worth the half hour drive. It's fantastic. Literally the best pizza you'll find on earth.
If you're one of those mutants who enjoys Greek pizza or Chicago deep dish, stay home.
I've never taken the bus you referred to nor have ever used Uber on gameday but a lot will depend on whether you're planning to tailgate or not. There are plenty on this board who would welcome you to join their tailgate. If you can get your hands on a Blue Lot pass that's the closest you'll...
While I think last night was a huge indictment on what an absolute incompetent clown Diaco was here, I'm hesitant until I see this in live game action against other teams who will gameplan against us.
I still think the roster needs to be upgraded big time. The major takeaway for me last night...
Hard to put a number on this. Like others I just want to see a competently coached team with players who haven't quit. It would take Nick Saban some time to turn this thing around.
Really shouldn't come as a surprise to hear any of this. The roster is a mess. Diaco recruited at a FCS level. We had a lot of posters claim it was mostly coaching (and a lot of it certainly was), but we just don't have the talent right now. This is gonna take a while.
Easter is home to both the greatest and worst candy ever known to mankind.
The Reese's PB Eggs are amazing.
Peeps were created by the most vile sadistic sumbitch who ever lived.
The irony of someone who thinks what he says on message board makes a difference if players come here telling me I take myself too seriously.
And yep, if they brought Diaco back, I was done. I make no apologies for that either.
You are like the Paul Blart of the BY. The notion that anything we post here matters to recruits or players in the grand scheme of things is pure fantasy.
Read through the whole thing and I just can't get over what a complete and utter fool Diaco was. And then to see MattS shilling for him and lying about the playclock. Ugh.
After seeing that it just reinforces my opinion that grading HS kids based on their tape is astoundingly stupid. LMFAO at anyone who watches a 5 min video of a kid's best plays and thinks they can assign a 2, 3, or 4 star to them.
I'd rather look at what other schools want the kid to play there.
