The halfwits here have only the following to base our halfwitted opinions on:
Louisville is in the ACC. UConn plays in a conference with no name, no exposure, no revenue and in the collegiate world, no relevance.
I'm still waiting, patiently, as Herbst often likes to say, to see any reporting of the heroic efforts of Herbst and Manuel to advance UConn's position during that very short window when MD/RU left and the ACC acted. All I know is that Herbst and Manuel were in the USVI for the great bulk of this period.
Since we can't trust the result (after all UConn lost to Lvile), and there are no other facts to refute the position that Herbst and Manuel did everything possible (in fact while absence of evidence isn't the best evidence, it is still evidence), how do you know we halfwits are wrong?
Is it based merely on the supposition that any president in Herbst's position would have done everything possible to advance UConn, ergo Herbst did it, or do you possess secret facts of these heroic efforts? I for one would love to be privy to it, seeing as I am a bit of a dullard. It won't make me smart, but I'll be an informed dullard.
Lastly smart alecs here like to throw out the, "well tough guy, what do you want her and manuel to do" card. As i wrote before, that is a canard. THEY are the institution's leaders. THEY are paid to have a plan, not me, nor other dimwits. THEY have the resources of a $2billion organization to draw on.
Nonsense.
You've been paying too much attention to the halfwits here.
