Message: [QUOTE="AllHusky, post: 5336412, member: 6498"] People were very skeptical of UConn joining the nascent Big East. For a number of years(no Boneyard then😁) folks cried we didn't belong there, couldn't compete. And then lo and behold we did. The trio of Perkins, Calhoun and Auriemma put the Huskies on the map. Had Perkins stayed until the fateful ACC decison, it would have no doubt gone UConns way. P2-4 has to be a topic of discussion. The ascendance of UConn Athletics, Hoops and Football too, was about the right hires. The fall of UConn football was about the wrong hires. Benedict has done a great job as an AD fighting from behind the whole way. He made a great hire with Hurley, still has Geno, and Mora has stopped the bleeding. [/QUOTE]
