Colorado State's big investment in athletics over the past decade produces mixed results (Coloradoan - open access)

Market the current status quo of UConn AAC football and men's basketball? That's your solution to getting this mythical P5 invite you think is happening?

The more the remain brigade gets pointed questions the more they flounder.

Of course the correct answer is (that you ducked with a random non relevant Calhoun quote) is we wouldn't be invited if an invite is coming unless we dramatically improve football AND men's hoop. Pretty obvious the BE/Indie route is more likely to improve both situations as Remain AAC would.

Let's see. We were thought of as a shoo-in for the ACC at least twice. Have won more championships than SU, BC and Pitt combined since the first ACC raid.

Keep living in fantasy land of "Waaaa! No one wants us!" Thank God reasonable people are running things.

The only choice was jump to a non football conference and go independent?

Yes.

Yes. We should prioritize football. The sport where Oklahoma, Michigan, Notre Dame, etc can barely compete with what LSU, Clemson, Ohio State, and Alabama are putting on the field. All to hopefully get a bid to the Gasparilla Bowl.

Yes, we should prioritize football. We can keep going around and around here.

UCONN has a strategy, I absolutely will agree with that. It’s a short term strategy. UCONN needed a long term strategy. They don’t have one and that is evident. Doesn’t mean people on a message board can’t lament it.

We waved the white flag. I get it. Let’s just not act like it was a great move.

I thought you were upset with how they are running things?

Yes.

oof.

Geno will be leaving at some point, and Hurley will jump too. Football will be dead. And so will the athletic program.

LOL.

We’ll be fine. If you want to be better than fine, hire a football coach that can win at a shockingly high level. If we can’t hire Art Briles, hire Kendall Briles.
