Message: [QUOTE="KryHavok, post: 5337082, member: 12905"] Your conference will never, [B][U][COLOR=rgb(184, 49, 47)]NEVER[/COLOR][/U][/B], see or value UConn beyond being a school that once shared ties with several of your current conference members. Cal, Stanford, and SMU are not football powers (or basketball powers since the topic came up), and they were snatched up by your conference right quick without so much as UConn being an afterthought. I agree with your statement that UConn needs football success, which we had during REv1, but it will be hard to get that against your conference mates now that Patterson's quitting has confirmed how utterly biased your conference's officiating has been (especially against UConn, and I go back to stupid calls against UConn during the NC State game a few years back). I've got nothing against you billybud, but your conference is a garbage hotbed that is treading water and spiting UConn because it can't admit it made mistakes by overlooking UConn in the past (taking Loserville) and it believes it can stay together despite FSU's and Clemson's little tantrums. I've been adamant in saying your conference is not and never will be in our future...it would have helped us immensely had we been taken instead of Loserville, and we would've been a solid addition considering our overall athletic performances and academics, but we stand at a situation where if the Big12 doesn't invite UConn in the next several years, our football program is cooked. I hate your conference with such disdain that it makes my hatred of the Dallas Cowboys, New York Yankees, and Notre Dame football seem like mild annoyance. I think your conference sees UConn with the same contempt I see your conference...UConn having winning seasons will absolutely not change that mindset. [/QUOTE]
