Message: [QUOTE="Carnac, post: 3857232, member: 5798"] [B]That’s why the other coaches in the conference are happy to have UConn back in the fold.[/B] It gives the confidence more name recognition, a higher profile, a sellout game when UConn comes to your gym/arena, and the game will be televised, which gives your program ”national“ exposure. [B]Note -[/B] SNY programming is featured by outlets all across the country. I’m in Southern California, and I've seen every UConn women’s game broadcast by SNY since they obtained the broadcast right from CCTV. :) It also gives your team the chance to measure themselves against a perennial top 5 team. That’s why DePaul head coach Doug Bruno was “genuinely“ happy to learn that UConn was returning to the Big East Conference. Look at the unique opportunity that Xavier, Creighton and Butler will have over the next week when the Huskies come to town. They will host the number one team in the country in their facility. That's also a great recruiting tool to be able to tell potential recruits: “We play UConn twice a year.“ [/QUOTE]
