The ACC needs to survive if UConn is going to find a home in a decent football conference. Numbers wise. Tulane, Rice, Vandy, Northwestern to the ACC after all the State U's bail. The ACC will become the Ivy of the "South" with its private U's. At some point Vandy and Northwestern may decide...

Point taken. However, I saw that he received offers from Kentucky, Louisville and Syracuse. For a 16 or 17 year old kid, he probably made the smart choice. Villanova was in the mix but with Neptune, so...

Zvonimir Ivisic is transferring to Arkansas. They think they can buy a championship with squid and his recruits. But those guys couldn't win at Kentucky. What a bunch of maroons! Hogs get slaughtered! :D

I don't think any of those impressions are remotely close to the celebs, but the snl jeopardy skits were hilarious Celebrity Jeopardy! Kathie Lee, Tom Hanks, Sean Connery, Burt Reynolds - SNL

the acc discards could end up in the aac. full circle, as it were. I'd like to see some type of big east/acc merger but I don't think it would ever happen.

Look at it this way. 1999 is the most critical year for most of us. Championship #1 The 2024 Champions. Cam Spencer was born in 2000 and is probably the oldest member of the team. These guys weren't even born yet when Rip won it all. ucla? forgeataboutit. That's ancient history which kids today...

We are so freaking spoiled. I love this team. Big East Player of the Year

I think Pitt is unique and the one program I wish we were reunited with. It puts the conference in B1G country, AAU, almost $6 billion endowment, and had a great basketball run while in the Big East. The implosion of the PAC 12 screwed UConn. The implosion of the ACC could do the same with...

Well, if it's 5 years and averages $5.5 mill, maybe it starts out at $3.5 mill or $4 mill with the option of getting -canned if he doesn't win. Who knows.

is that real?!!! wow, that is crazy.

Regarding Bags of Cash. Anyone can go to Kentucky and you just don't know how it will pan out. Whatever Calipari was, he had a pretty good track record and they still hated him. Dan Hurley is gold in Connecticut. He is only 6 years in and walks on water. He is the hottest coach in the...

He didn't exactly sound overly optimistic after the Duquesne loss

If anything there might be just a slight what, cultural difference, between what the Kentucky donors are used to and what Pope brings to campus.

Well, you can't make the concrete silo any bigger, it is what it is. So expand upward. Then top it off with thunderdome.

It's a bad building that for some incomprehensible reason some folks thought was a good idea at the time. It's a limited windowless cylinder. I agree, start from scratch and think big this time. And consult with the fire marshall beforehand.

Oh Grasshopper. We all know this but it won't matter. The Big 12 just invited 3 former C-USA programs. It could invite a back-to-back basketball championship program and the football team would no doubt flourish with Big 12 money. They could even offer UConn reduced shares and we'd probably...

It would be strange seeing FSU go B1G and UNC go SEC. SEC moves are all about football. Ohio State to the SEC!

speaking of Kentucky bluegrass

Good for Governor Lamont. Gampel Pavilion opened in 1990 at a cost of $28 million or $65.3 million in today's dollars, according to wikipedia. How the heck can we not get a brand new, much nicer facility for under $100 million?

I doubt the old man's returning to coaching any time soon, but God bless him if he does. Seriously though, I thought it was understood that I meant doing it today. In our time. Dan Hurley should say something like, "There are so many reasons to stay at UConn. Throw in all the P4 rumors and...

If Bobby looked more like Danny he could them. Maybe Cam Spencer would like to cut his teeth on the way up.

"If he turned down a rhetorical 20 million it was never about the money. And that’s fine. Problem is those UConn yankee bastards will be more obnoxious than ever."

The next Cam, Tristen, Hass and Stephon are out there. Dan Hurley is Jerry McGuire

The chance to win 3 in a row in men's college basketball is virtually 0%, unless you are Dan Hurley. You have to chase 3 in a row because you are the only man alive who can do that. Plus, you have to wait and see what happens with CR and if there are any changes to UConn's membership or the Big...

the hog board may surpass southern canada for yucks "Cali-par-e or Cali-pair-e. Ok is it pronounced at the end with par-e or pair-e? Or does everyone just do their own thing like Malzhan or Malazhan? Just to be clear, a little sarcasm here not at Coach Cal but the half of Hog fans that will...

1989 I'll take the road less traveled and throw 1989 into the ring because Uncle Cliffy deserves some mention. Plus they've been very good a lot longer than 25 years. Nelson did include 1990 though. Lot's of history on this team. I would have said 1988 but Chris Smith wasn't there yet...

This is interesting The Dean Dome was built in 1986 for $34 million and seats 22k https://www.wral.com/video/unc-considers-renovating-or-replacing-dean-e-smith-center/21371455/

#2. The author absolutely understands it's all about football. My feeling is, the ACC and Big 12 are fighting losing battles because they will never ever win the football battle. So win at something else. That's this guys point...

At 56:30 Cam carries the Championship Trophy into the room and then places it on the table between Stephon & Tristen. These guys are just total class and respect. Love Coach Dan Hurley! I've never seen so many butt-hurt fans out there or maybe I've never read opposing message boards before...

UConn has proven time and again that despite the stacked odds, it can succeed. The ACC is a complete mess and even if it has regrets it probably won't add UConn. They've made a series of bad decisions and have no clue what to do now. The ACC and Big 12. They don't like UConn Football even...

Wow, so sad. They lost to little old UConn, an academic peer from the Big East. Maybe they should focus a little more on academics and leave the Big 10 if they want to be considered an academics first organization since they're only like the 6th rated public in the conference. All those Big 10...

This is a really great Cowherd analysis. He says so many great things about the UConn program, the coaches, the players, the methods, the culture. "Everything in their program is done right." "UConn never loses when they lead at half. Ever...36-30 at half. Newton comes down hits a...

Magnificent!
