Message: [QUOTE="nelsonmuntz, post: 4698636, member: 833"] Connecticut is a wealthy, mid-sized state with lots of corporate headquarters located here, and we will never have a professional sports team because it is too close to Boston and New York. UConn is the state's pro team, and always has been. That means the fan base extends well beyond just the alumni. In an NIL world, where anyone can buy a team, UConn is a couple of hedge funds away from building an NIL powerhouse. The University of Connecticut is well-positioned for success, either within the Big 12 or the Big East. Yormark sees that, and that is why he is pushing for UConn. [/QUOTE]
