My plan for cutting the cord was to get the local wifi (gonetspeed) and use Ooma for home phone service (wife still uses it). Turns out our home security system can't send emergency signals properly the way a land line does. Other option would be to get land line only through comcast but that's...
Anyone watching this? First two episodes released on Sunday 1/12. Finished the book about a month ago and so far the show is faithful to Mr. King's story.
props to whomever gets it right. This is a tricky one due to recent performance from both teams. Florida has struggled at home so you would expect them to not figure it out at a packed Gampel. I'm going with the St. Joe's 1st half being an anomaly and the oddsmakers setting the line at UConn -2.5.
Anyone have a link to a good printable schedule? Uconnhuskies.com has the schedule but if you click on the printable version it gives you the roster instead.
3-part series on Pitt's life in the ACC.
A look inside the ‘awkward process’ that landed Pitt in the ACC
No mention that UConn was slotted ahead of them before politics took over.
Here it is: Oh, the Places You’ll Go! Where Big Ten Graduates Live and Conference Realignment
Contains this little blurb about UConn:
"UConn is a more of an institutional fit as a flagship school, has strong connections to both New York and Boston and a top level basketball program...
Normally I would say the first three games are just a warm up for the real games but after last year I'm not taking anything for granted. Not even going to make a joke about toothpaste this week. Nope. All business.
Looks like they just lost to Canisius by 18 in an exhibition. This article...
Visiting some Mizzou boards it seems that many fans are expecting Odom to be fired if they lose to UConn. This got me thinking of how many other coaches have been fired after losing to UConn. I don't think you can include Weis at ND because he was on his way out anyway. Can't include the Holy...
Is it common to order season-tickets and not know where the seats are? I may be getting 2 season tix for the XL but not until I can confirm where they are. Should I wait or do I need to call to find out where they are?
I've never been to the bar at the XL but might go for the Memphis game. How early do you have to get there to get a seat where you can watch the game? Can you stay the whole game?
What if UConn wins tonight? You guys need to stop the doom and gloom comments. Listen to Mikey for more inspiration:
Don't you realize? The next time you see sky, it'll be over another town. The next time you take a test, it'll be in some other school. Our parents, they want the best of stuff...
Interesting article on the new research park at UConn. Clearly aiming for AAU & B1G attention.
Framing UConn’s Future: Tech Park - UConn Today
Q: Are public-private research partnerships more important today in terms of securing funding than they have been in the past?
A: I think that...
This is what I think is going on in the UConn CR world.
The ACC has wanted UConn all along but knew they could wait since they had no other suitors.
With word spreading that UConn is a candidate for the B12 Swofford moved quickly to meet with ESPN about UConn.
ESPN wants UConn and ND in the ACC...
According to awfulannouncing UConn/Kansas averaged 5.952m compared to San Antonio/Golden States 4.269m. First half hour had over 7 million viewers. Last year (Gtown/Utah) did a 4.268m in the same timeslot. Just imagine what the ratings would have been if the Warriors weren't playing at the same...
I haven't been pre-gaming for Gampel games in years but will be this Sunday. What is the best spot for a few drinks (preferable near Gampel so we can just walk in). I know the Civic Pub isn't there anymore. Just Ted's?
This has apparently been speculated as the reason why Swofford is trying to deregulate the conference championship game rules. He denies that in this article but what are the other reasons why would be so in favor of this? Maybe to stop the B12 from raiding the ACC...
So it's now a category 4 and has stalled right over the Bahamas. I would expect to see a lot of damage once it finally clears out but I wonder what happens if there is significant damage to the basketball facilities used for the Battle 4 Atlantis? Move it to Hartford!
It's a possibility according to Blauds. http://ajerseyguy.com/?p=12760
"The solution on the table for all parties to consider is this: UConn switches its road game at UMass on Sept. 10 with a road game at BC. UMass then takes FIU and sticks into the Sept. 10 slot to replace UConn.
For giving up...
This is the date of the rematch vs Mizzou. Most of the playmakers for Uconn today will still be playing in the rematch. The future has never brighter for Uconn football. #beatnavy
All I know is they have a very good senior QB, above average defense and they went for it many times on 4th and short last year because their kicker was unreliable. Their coach was quoted as saying he is glad it is a night game because he was concerned about playing in the heat with fewer...
So the B1G is currently negotioating it's TV rights starting in 2017 right? How does that impact potential future expansion? Would they be more apt to expand before signing a new deal or after? We've seen before where TV negotiations cause things to happen (i.e. Big East being torn apart after...
@UConnFootball: Breaking News out of Burton: UCONN Football staff nearing conclusion of investigation from last month's heist. Stay Tuned. #UConnFootball
Just thought I'd share the attendance #'s for the road games this season compared to the 2013/14 average. I wonder if any ACC/B1G schools would like to boost attendance at their home games?
Florida att 11,041 Avg 11,471 Down 3.5% (FB bowl game for UF at same time)
USF att 6,128 Avg...
