Message: [QUOTE="Kolumbo, post: 5345962, member: 4613"] I'm not nearly as concerned about it anymore because "Big Time Football" is more and more about the P2. Everyone else is part of a fluid cluster of ever-changing conferences. Oregon State at 0-6 is one of the best brands in the evolving PAC/MWC. you got your bcu's who should join similar programs to be competitive. fans want regional conferences rather than these cross-country money grabs. UConn keeps building on campus taking away available land for a stadium. Rentschler Field may also become more limited as it offers land to businesses. I'd love to see an on-campus stadium and enjoy the entire football & campus experience, no matter who UConn is playing, but it's not going to happen because we just can't figure out how to do things properly in CT. The Hartford Athletic have a reconstructed stadium in Hartford which has plans to be expand to 15k. The stadium hosts 17 home Hartford Athletic games, high school soccer, and festivals. That's smart. Penn State offers the perfect blueprint for an on-campus stadium in a rural setting. Just look at all that parking! UConn will never have that but we won't be in the Big Ten either. We could have say 30% of that very easily if we wanted to. [ATTACH type="full" size="1706x834"]112148[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
