Message: [QUOTE="Chuck, post: 4719327, member: 1646"] I honestly can't see us getting looked at by a conference again. I think it's over. We've been passed over by everyone. I think we're looked at not differently than the rest of our Big East brethren. We happen to play football, but it's not even considered MAC level and there's little appetite for seeing if that would change. To be clear, I think this is BS. UConn is significantly more valuable than a number of teams that have been chosen ahead of us, and certainly more valuable than a number of legacy Power teams. The Big 12 just doubled up in two states (one of which has slightly lower population than Connecticut despite being 5(?) times the size). The ACC took two private schools and a borderline community college over a flagship UConn. This is over until we get an invite. Any other noise is just that. You can feel bad for Charlie Brown for a couple misses, but after a while, he's the sucker. Let's just keep winning and enjoy the ride. The administration needs to do everything it can to allow us to be relevant in basketball. It just doesn't look like a Power conference is part of that equation. [/QUOTE]
