That guy was all over the place and totally unrealistic.

And remind Brett Yormark. Brett Yormark in July 2023: "We also aren't just a football conference. On the basketball front, we've got to bring the product to all the right places, and New York is the place for it. I want us to have a big moment in New York."

UCONN BANKS ON BASKETBALL’S VALUE IN FOOTBALL-DRIVEN NCAA UConn is the only school to have won both Division I basketball titles in the same season—which it accomplished in 2004 and 2014—and it continues to serve as a prime example of the kind of value premier basketball programs can have, even...

That tweet was accompanied by this story: UCONN BANKS ON BASKETBALL’S VALUE IN FOOTBALL-DRIVEN NCAA UConn is the only school to have won both Division I basketball titles in the same season—which it accomplished in 2004 and 2014—and it continues to serve as a prime example of the kind of value...

College football 'super league' proposal has merit but significant obstacles remain if restructuring sport With college sports strapped to a rocket heading toward an uncertain future, the 20 people involved in the venture dubbed "College Sports Tomorrow" are girding for what seems to be a...

C.W. Lambert@InsideTheBig12 Serious post... been saving this one... don't want the blowback. As of today, ESPN plans to pick up the option on the ACC's contract. Why? ESPN will pick up the option, unless Clemson and FSU buy their way out of the ACC, to prevent Clemson and FSU from leaving for...

What did he say to the fanbase about UConn possibly joining the ACC or Big12? I don't recall him saying anything. There was some talk of recruits being told things; not sure where that was coming from. But I don't think Mora said anything publicly about it, until the Big 12 was obviously not...

Nebraska AD foresees performance-based revenue distribution model LINCOLN, Neb. -- New Nebraska athletic director Troy Dannen expects revenue distribution in college sports to become more performance-based over time, resulting in an "eat what you kill" model. Dannen, hired at Nebraska last...

When I go to his twitter account it says: Jim Mora @CoachJimMoraFB

You are confused. This is not the WBB. This is the Conference Realignment Board.

Hurley: UConn Would Be Powerhouse Even Without a Return to the Big East But when Front Office Sports asked whether his program would have reached this level of dominance if it hadn’t rejoined the Big East, he leaned forward into the microphone and said, “Absolutely.” “We would be where we...

Hurley said it was not guaranteed to him by Benedict and Herbst. "When Hurley was hired a year ago at UConn from Rhode Island, he said there were no promises made to him by President Susan Herbst and the administration that UConn would ultimately re-join the Big East. Yet the rumors have been...

Contiguous states.

Yes, UConn did "run through the tournament" for the past two years. 2024: UConn concludes a dominant run to its 2nd straight NCAA title, beating Zach Edey and Purdue 75-60 GLENDALE, Ariz. (AP) — A basketball beatdown. A coaching clinic. A double-digit domination. Take one guess who finished...

When Rutgers and Maryland were added, two requirements were 1) AAU member 2) Contiguous state. UConn was neither. Also, cable boxes.

I think he's talking about this guy. This guy said that ESPN is not going to extend the media deal. The GOR ends when the media deal isn't extended. He says that the ACC has been given an ultimatum. They have been told to settle with FSU and Clemson prior to June 30, 2024 or FSU and Clemson...

billybud, thank you for posting that video. I've watched it twice to try to understand what is going on. He does make some statements or assumptions which may or may not be true...specifically, that ESPN does not intend to renew the media deal in 2027. The above statement doesn't appear...

That was C.W. Lambert@InsideTheBig12

They won't be "grabbing" those schools. They will wait for ACC schools.

Who would be our partner?

I want to have some hope, but I think they would take the ACC schools before us, too, simply because they are P4 schools. All this talk about UConn will die down in a month, if not sooner.

Don't we need a partner? And wouldn't that be the same with the Big 12? If we're talking about when the ACC breaks up, that could take a long time, if it even happens.

Re posts about Mora quitting (really quitting, not quiet quitting), his contract runs through Dec. 31, 2026 so how can he do that?

Good discussion in favor of adding UConn to the Big 12 when the ACC breaks up.

C.W. Lambert@InsideTheBig12 I have some legit insider information from a source in the sports broadcasting industry that I was going to write up and disseminate, but I don't have the time. So, I'm just going to spill the beans here and now and see who takes notice. C.W. Lambert@InsideTheBig12...

I think that, too. I also think that when he took the job, he did not realize what a handicap being independent was going to be to his success.
