Message: [QUOTE="Hoophound, post: 3835045, member: 271"] The Big East is a great conference and it makes sense for us right now. If there is anything that can dramatically change the face of UConn athletics without a P5 bid, it is to win football games and fill the stadium. Winning football games will change everything. The school and state need to figure it out. They need to find a coach that can win and pay him. Connecticut cannot handle much more losing. It is time to bring some pride back to the state and invest in success. There is a huge economic and emotional upside to UConn winning games and making memories for state residents. Maybe I’m just a dreamer, but I see a very successful UConn being a huge part of Connecticut’s identity and its future. I left the state 22 years ago and UConn is what brings me back. We’ve gotta figure it out. It is far more important than people realize. There isn’t much left. [/QUOTE]
