Message: [QUOTE="Goatmeat, post: 4047194, member: 10596"] No one cares about overall championships and no one cares about baseball. Baseball is nothing in realignment. UConn fans like to talk about academic ranking vs places like Houston and Louisville. No one cares! Clearly. We are one of the few schools left out of the P5. Even cincy, Houston and UCF are laughing at us. We are irrelevant. Basketball will now fade over the next decade or so. If Hurley is successful, we cannot pay him enough to stay compared to P5 salaries. We are now part of the stepping-stone category. It’s really quite tragic. I did not think, in 2016, that if realignment were to become an issue again in 2021, that our name would not have even been brought up as a top—12 contender. It’s just so sad. What a fall from grace. I never thought we would be here in my lifetime. [/QUOTE]
