I still think of him as waylonsmithers....
"Can UConn have a SOS of 80 to 100? Absolutely with this conference....UConn could get a SOS of as high as 60 with a very strong non-conference schedule."
UCONN's current SOS is 34
"Casual fans are already walking away."
Metro North is adding trains on Friday and the ticket is going for 25% more than the FF
"LOL. You realize how ignorant you sound? Are you really arguing that the AAC is just as good as the Big East from a basketball perspective?"
The AAC got as many bids (and just missed with SMU) and the BE doesn't have anyone playing right now. The AAC has two.
"I would even join the MAC for football over staying in this league for all sports."
The AAC champ beat the Big12 champ shortly after this post.
"The AAC is a mid-major league and the Big East is a big step up."
The AAC has twice as many teams in the top 30 Kempom than the BE
"The NBE and AAC are not remotely comparable"
Well, in a way, he did get this one right.
"I expect UConn to be well into the Top 20 of public universities by the time my kids are ready to go"
UCONN was #19 by US News at the time of this prediction. I expect today will be Wednesday.
"From a football standpoint, this is about as good as we can do outside the Top 5." vs. "If we could get a 2-3 game contract for national games with Fox, and then get the rest on SNY, we would make more money and get better exposure than we will under the AAC/ESPN deal. "
Yes. the same guy posted both of this.
"BTW, UConn is the only AAC team playing in the Sweet 16."
He doesn't even know who was in the league this year.
"The BE is not slightly better than the AAC, it is a lot better."
Right
"Does anything Fox does ever flop?"
9 of the 10 lowest rated games were on Fox Big East.
"Conference realignment is not solely driven by football."
Maybe lacrosse?
"Who has responded with facts? Math is the core of this debate, so there should be a fact based way to rebut my assertion if I am wrong."
Facts are tricky.
"Awesome MAC crowd at the football game yesterday. The conference decisions for UConn have been fail on top of fail."
When UCF won the BCS Bowl game, it was a bigger crowd. Fact.
"I don't think UConn is doing everything in its power to get more revenue. "
But I guess that mean turning down exit fees for less money in the BE?
"It is obvious to anyone that understands RPI, basketball, or even can describe what a basketball looks like that the AAC is a weak conference and the Big East is a lot better. "
That PC vs Seton Hall semi final in the BET was awesome compared to UCONN Cincy.
"You have been proven wrong. My original post was analysis, not opinion, and the assessment I made weeks ago is being proven more and more right every day."
No comment.
"The only thing stupider than staying in the AAC for basketball is to stay in it for football."
A wise man once said "From a football standpoint, this is about as good as we can do outside the Top 5."
