This has to win post of the year.

Seeing Herbst on a flight and speculating it is about an invite to a conf and turns out she visited her son, this is awesome. And has 100+ replies. Genius.

I don't think anyone knows that she was visiting her son. I am not saying that this had anything to do with Conference Realignment or even UConn. I just saw her on the flight but I think the people who say she was visiting her son are speculating just as much. I don't think anyone really knows why she was there.

How do you know it's an honest assessment? What body of work do you base that on? Almost all, if not all, of these experts have a personal agenda which does not align with ours. So based on the tank we should delete the cr board as our lot has been cat for eternity. I for one am mad as hell and I not going to take it anymore.

Thats why I noted that I take it as only 1 man's opinion and stated how I believe his opinion nonwithstanding doesn't jibe with mine!But I do understand how many reject his opinion.I just prefer hearing him give me "his truth" as a midwesterner rather than a sugarcoated version!Its best to know what were up against if were to fight the misconceptions!

It's obvious that Susan's flight to Chicago is coincidental and has nothing to do conference realignment. Just like the AAU president's mention of UConn a few short days later is clearly a coincidence.

Or is it?

Yes. If she wanted to have a meeting with her son, what's more likely: She flies to Chicago on a business day, staying overnight (which she would only do if the meeting had to be early morning; and how likely is it that a college student demands an early morning meeting?); or she flies her son home for a weekend? Whose time is more valuable, hers or her son's?

Maybe she met with her son while in Chicago, but that wasn't the reason for the trip. Busy people tend to fit in family meetings with their business trips. This would have been no different.

That said, it usually takes many meetings to make a deal, and most attempted deals never come to fruition. This could have been about any number of things, but probably it was just an informational meeting. If she is working toward AAU membership, such meetings are a good opportunity to make UConn's case, get feedback, and find out what further steps UConn can or needs to take. Same with B1G relations.
 
Obviously Susan was invited for a personal tour of the B1G's new headquarters. "Susan, this is where we'll have most of our major meetings. You'll note that we have a round table because each of us are equal. UConn's seat will eventually be riiiiight over there."

My thanks to Susan
Her simple act of getting on a plane providered more entertainment
then this forum as experienced since the ACC gor
Even the debunkers awoke from their hibernation to quickly assure everyone of our impending doom.
A good time was had by all.
 
OK guys, I just got word that Susan was on a secret mission to plaster these all over the new B1G HQ. I think they'll get the message now.
