Agree he's got inner ears but I don't necessarily see his messaging that way - he's UConn/Bleeds Blue all the way.

All of this Doomsday talk about what might happen on Monday is Ridiculous! We are NOT Victims- WE ARE @UConn ! We WILL RISE no matter what!

A small Agricultural College EVOLVED into a National Academic/Athletic POWERHOUSE Due to LEADERSHIP not FEAR. We WILL RISE REGARDLESS @UConn

A Top 20 Public University is CREATED by INTELLIGENCE COMMITMENT & RESOLVE-NOT by an Invitation to a Conference. @UConn #WatchUsRise

I'm going to read way too much into this and assume the AAC is toast after 4 teams get picked that aren't us. this is not inspiring, Mike, you're terrifying me.

That UH, UC, and the two florida schools theory would be awful if true. Worst case scenario.

The only positive I could spin from that scenario, while still the worst possible outcome, is being the benefactor of a ton of exit fees that keep us at bay in G5. It bridges the gap further until either ND could join ACC or UConn achieves AAU status. Borderline insane, but it is more money coming back to UConn.

Herbst-Rubin-McHugh-Benedict-Toscano-Newton-Goetz-Calhoun-Ollie-Auriemma-Diaco-Rowe. VISIONARY LEADERS in spite of Criticism&Doubt @Uconn

As an aside - MM was just named to Board of Directors for UConn Foundation.
 
Was Mike Melio involved in the Diaco hiring process? Could you imagine those two guys getting in a room together?

I would imagine a donor with his net worth and track record of high-profile donations had to have been.

Honestly, no way is he remotely plugged into anything. If UConn is out they're out, but this dude is no predictor of anything.

I doubt that Mike can't even get a hint as to what is going on. He probably has Susan's cell #. My hope is the administration and Melio think we have a 50/50 shot or better and that they are just worried about the outcome at this point. Anything less is not good. Of all the crazy, made up Tweets, let's hope Connecticut politicians leaning hard on ESPN is the one that is true.

Ur a clown honestly.

If you think he's got any info it's basically the same as Benedict dropping a deuce during the tailgate. Has the B12 said anything to anyone re: any expansion or 2,4 teams?

If there were any decisions we'd see more leaks by now. I doubt they have finalized anything yet.

The guy is a troll. He trolls lots of sites.
 
McHugh prolonged Hathaway and gave us Pasqualone. I wouldn't exactly put his mug up on the Pantheon of great leaders. If anything, he is as much responsible for where UConn is today as anyone is or has been at UConn. He deserves unmitigated scorn.
 
No one has any idea what the Big 12 presidents are gonna do. Literally, no one. These presidents haven't met together since July. They meet tonight for a dinner and then Monday for a few hours. I would be absolutely shocked if they announced that X teams will be added tomorrow. If anything, I think they announce that they AGREE to expand by 2/4 and continue the expansion search. I still think the likeliest announcement tomorrow is that expansion is tabled for the time being.

This is the only thing that reassures me. Most pundits don't have us among the most likely scenarios.

...But none of them even thought they'd vote to pursue expansion talks in the first place. Presidents got together and made a decision.

Let's hope they do the same again and decide the most important thing is working towards some sort of network.
 
oh f. f.f.f.f. something is definitely happening tomorrow if the Big XII is tweeting out to tune into the press conference. 2h1t
 
Or they'll rub everyone's face in the fact they got more money without expanding and mention no schools of value were available.

They do it after all Board mtgs... Listened to the last one in the summer.
 
did BYU stream the last one too? We're screwed.
Not necessarily. We should scour the internet for Cincy and Houston to see what's going on there though.
 
Moved:
The stuff from Benedict at the tailgate a few weeks ago, plus the UConn donor's comments, plus BYU showing this on its channel--well, you can all see the stars aligning against UConn.

Lots of chest bumps. LOTS.
