Message: [QUOTE="ninety-nine, post: 4721995, member: 5497"] UConn has to be the only state university in the US that people expect to give up and stop trying to compete at football or to promote its successes at basketball in its efforts to find a suitable home that will support all of its athletic programs. It's like we're not real people. We have to abandon everything and just twiddle our thumbs or something, while watching everyone else get a turn. I'm sick of this excrement. I don't want to lose FBS football after already losing the Whalers. I swear, if I get season tickets to something, outside folks try to shut it down. These Catholic Big East schools got together and forced us to choose between football and staying in the Big East (functionally), and then socked us with huge exit fees when we rejoined 8 years later because the AAC wasn't working for us. It's like being a punching bag. [/QUOTE]
