Are we in the ACC, the B1G?

So, exactly what has Herbst done other than spend tax payer money?

Clearly it's neck and neck. I'll go with both!

Are we in the ACC? Are we in the BiG?

Louisville is in the ACC.
Rutgers is in the B1G.

This is a sports site. What relevance does anything else she does good or bad matter if she can not deliver UConn to a good league. This is a sports site.
If UConn doesn't get into a real league, this board will disappear, Ollie will move on and I guess you guys can watch home videos of the Herbst family reunions.

Wow, I though your original post was sarcasm.

The needs of the sports fan doesn't out weight the needs of the university. UConn is not just a sports team. They are a great university with aspirations to become a better one. Being a fan of a great university means you have to understand that your desires for athletics may not just be as important as the academic wing. When the former outlasts the latter, bad stuff happens.

Because this is such an outrageous post, I'm still think this is either sarcasm or trolling. The narcissism of this train of thought is a little more than my mind can bear.

Are people this delusional?
This is a basketball website. It is about winning basketball games.
The UConn basketball program belongs to a lousy league.
If Kevin Ollie leaves the team at the end of the year, it doesn't matter how much tax payer money is spent on other facets of the university. We will lose basketball games. Our program will fall back to mediocre.
How many people in the state follow YALE basketball? Should we stop cheering for UConn and cheer for Yale because they have better academics.
Does anyone imagine that the UConn team is loaded with Rhodes Scholars.
Our football program is poor
If we had a top 25 football team with 50,000 season ticket holders we would be in the B1G.
We would be in the ACC.
The only reason people are on this website is because Jim Calhoun turned a mediocre program into a national program.
If Herbst fails to get us into a league that allows this program to flourish, she has failed the basketball fans. Period. Stop. Finish.
This is about winning basketball games.

How could we be in both?
How many conferences could we join with a top 10 team? What about top 25, but with 60,000 season ticket holders?
If we have a top 4 team and make the playoffs, could we play against ourselves?

So, because this is a basketball site, the university president, who runs all facets of the university, is doing a poor job because you aren't in a p5 league?

I'll give you a little piece of information: without the university, there would be no UConn basketball team to root for.

I think he wants us to root for Yale if that happens.

UConn Foundation folks surprisingly told me they've purposely stayed away from mass solicititation from our pro athletes in the past! I suggested they collar some of the more influential "UConn pros" to lead a fundraising effort among them and even mentioned some names. The thrust for a bigger endowment will likely lead to a lot of new thinking about fundraising sources.
Expand ...
Calhoun used to tell the players they have done enough for the university and they don't have to give back. Two years or so ago, the Foundation hired former athletes(I am not sure they are still there) to solicit "successful UCONN athletes". Not sure where that went but supposedly as part of his contract, Jimmy C is supposed to help there.
 
Then everybody will be happy if UConn doesn't get into the ACC or B1G and is playing the Tulane and ECU for the next fifty years.

And you can all build a bronze statue of Herbst.
