Cincinnati fans are delusional

[Jaydumo20]

Sportsfans care about championships

Dorks hide behind superficial money or admittanace standards arguments

I'm a sportsfan. Thank you

Thank you for making this point. Every time someone makes the "yeah but they have more money" argument just repost this. Every time. You summed it up expertly.

Well ya our booster can afford an extra yacht who cares if UConn has won 6 championships.

I could be wrong but he simply doesnt understand the big deal mens hoops is here. I assume hes from ohio and they have two NFL teams who usually stink or find a way to come up short. They have a basketball and baseball franchise that have long histories of misery and one title. What could he possibly know what winning titles is all about?

He knows about Ohio St.

After much thought I've come to the conclusion that UConn fans are delusional. We think that every sports fan thinks about Huskies Bball as much as we do.
How many of you can say that you don't walk around in uconn gear assuming that everybody is acknowledging the greatness?
I know I do. I'm flashing the 7 sign to my priest at communion.

UConn is back to back national chanpions

Cincinnati hasn’t made the tournament in 5 years

Both football programs’ most recent bowl game is 2022, both Ls

I’m very happy being a fan here. I’m majority basketball fan so I care about our basketball success. I’m not a AD administrator so I don’t know the financials. If they decide we need to be in a P4 conference for the long term success of UConn sports, so be it

But until then, we’re back to back national champions. What do I have to worry about? Lol

broke boy xavier (mid major) fan reading a premium uc board and running to twitter for broke boy uconn (mid major) support.

enjoy the church league!

All that revenue and you guys are still trash lol. Enjoy the B12 for the next 3 years!

 

[TheChamps990411]

He knows about Ohio St.

Yes he does and thats more reason he doesnt understand the big deal Uconn basketball is to this state. Hes got a bunch of pro teams and a major college football power in his state.

You do sound like a regular Cincinnati fan haha. I agree UC is looking up with the Big 12 move, but there is nothing that has happened here in sports that is relatable to Uconn’s back to back nattys. Maybe the Bengals Super Bowl run or UC’s college football playoff that feels forever ago. I say that as a fan of both…. I hope we aren’t just celebrating the 30th anniversary of making the college football playoff in 27-28 years the way basketball did for the 92 final four!

I am not a big fan of BE Commissioner Val and her pluff media pieces taking credit for programs built by great coaching not her.
I will say this though, the lousy TV revenue deals she cuts are less important now with NIL. A recruit cares about NIL money not school revenue. The more we can focus on that, the better off we will be. It is important though that TV is on accessible platforms and times.

Weird take.

Could you imagine having to be Cincinnati fan? Talk about a depressing existence

 

[Scrutineer]

Pretty sad so many here are denigrating our former conference mate. You'd think Cincy was a "safety school" to listen to you.

Here's a quote from the Simply College website:
"University of Cincinnati Main Campus is an easy school to get into and you have a very good chance of acceptance if you meet the admission criteria. Last year, 25,024 out of the 29,025 who applied were admitted."

86.2% of applicants are admitted so, for the math challenged, that means a whopping 13.8% are denied admission!

Here's a video of a recent applicant:

Kobe drives us to it. If it weren't for his trolling, we would probably be picking on some other P4 bottom feeder.

In fact, I sometimes think that's exactly why Kobe comes here. Some kind of masochistic need to see his own school roasted over the hot coals.

Whatever, we're still 6X champs and UC can get bent.

 

[Fore!]

I guess you have to decide, would you rather have your school be in the hunt and compete/win multiple national championships or not be in the hunt and say your school makes 40 Million.

Not that long ago many of the old Big East Conference schools chose the $, as UConn would have if given the opportunity; they still would today. Financial survival is paramount, particularly for a school that reportedly is losing tens of millions of dollars in their athletic department. We may hate it, but that’s todays reality when the school lacks a deep bench of well heeled donors to keep it afloat.

You may have a point. When I walk into a bar in NY wearing UConn threads and everyone isn't gawking at me like I'm Tom Cruise, I'm baffled. "Did you guys NOT notice I'm wearing gear for the 6-time national championship Huskies? Perhaps you're all distracted..."

 

[Palatine]

I wear UConn gear around Manhattan frequently. I get the occasional "go huskies" or "you guys have a great team" from a bartender or passerby.

As it relates to the thread, wear my UConn gear around Cincy all the time - just don't get as warm a reception haha

 

[AzHusky]

The looks I get here in Arizona depends on where I wear my UConn gear. If I wear it in Tempe I get a look of dirty looks, but if I wear it in Glendale I get a lot of high fives.

That's probably because they are relatively unfamiliar with march madness.

I won’t waste my time coaching you up!

THE Ohio State. Which is different than the regular one, I think.

I’ve never had anyone say something to me, but I have had car stickers torn off in the past

I understand about the Kobester. Just my attempt to add some humor to this.
