Message: [QUOTE="buddy, post: 2519960, member: 3489"] It does appear that 30 years of athletic success were wiped away in 2012. I never would have dreamed that UConn would win a national championship in men's basketball, let alone 4, but to get to the point where people would be happy to make the NIT at this time is just pathetic. How many elite basketball schools hope to make the NIT? When we are at the point where a victory over UCF is celebrated as a great accomplishment and getting beaten at home by Wichita State is acceptable, then I have to say that this is no longer an elite program. Cinci was an automatic win at that time, now it is an automatic loss. It is hard to go backwards, which is what has happened to UConn. It seems like we are back in the late 70's when the big game was against Seton Hall to see who would avoid last place. [/QUOTE]
