I Love It

Man you’re like Skip with this narrative you’ve composed

Can’t wait to watch it play out here and elsewhere

What narrative ? (And I don't even know who Skip is).

I'm just stating facts, am I not?

We have a city school in the northeast, tossed from the BE football conference for non-performance.

They make 2 or 3 good hires in a row, and now they are a formidable football school.

They never gave up.

It's that simple.

hahaha I know and of all things. Whaler is one of the biggest football fans on the board and even he gets it.

You made up a triggeringly-hot take, and now I’m looking forward to it derailing threads intermittently, or constantly, whichever. Because now they’re “formidable” too lol

TEMPLE HAS SURPASSED UCONN. WHO EVER SAW IT COMING

How many people were tuning into Big East games compared to the AAC last year for men's basketball? Is this why we are being brought into the old BE?

TULANE HAS SURPASSED UCONN. WHO EVER SAW IT COMING

Temple. Not Tulane.

And it's not a hot take.

It's reality.

You think UConn will ever be able to compete with Temple football ever again? No.

As for this talk coming up intermittently, I don't think it should. I think football is done, cooked, over, so it doesn't matter anymore.

But I will say this. You can find dozens and dozens of posters who ridiculed huskymagic and the like for the stupidity of ending UConn football, and many are now cheering the thing they formerly labeled stupidity.

So now I'm the one with a hot take, eh?

What was formerly gospel on the Boneyard, you couldn't be any more consistent that what I am saying to you now--and it fact, it is so downright boring that people used to roll their eyes when anyone wanted to pick over this carcass. It is the complete opposite of a hot-take. Until last night, it was the Boneyard default. Dreadfully boring.

They are more credible in football.

It is pretty stunning that they mismanaged football so badly, and now they have given up on football altogether, while Temple never gave up, even when it was sent out into the wilderness, Temple never gave up, and they came back and built a program.

It amazes me that UConn has conceded this much. UConn gave up.

Upstater is the kind of guy who loses $300 playing three card monty because he doesn’t give up when he is playing a rigged game.

Don’t worry about me, I have no real reaction to your opinion.

But I will say this. You can find dozens and dozens of posters who ridiculed huskymagic and the like for the stupidity of ending UConn football, and many are now cheering the thing they formerly labeled stupidity.

Exactly

So now I'm the one with a hot take, eh?

Just triggeringly-hot, given the last quote. And YES, now it’s “UConn will never compete with Temple again”!

Permanently surpassed in football by Temple. Let that sink in.

lol by your logic Rutgers has permanently surpassed Boise State.
Expand ...

They have!! I mean, come on.

You wouldn't rather be Rutgers?

What does $50m a year buy you (especially as we move to paying players) versus $1 million.

In the game of college football, Rutgers is a winner.
 
Seems last September showed exactly what conference the football program belongs in...the CAA!

What a huge thing for hoops, huge bonus for the NBE, too....Hurley will thrive in this.
 
Army finished ranked in the top 25 last season. Army. Definitely have to commend the people at West Point for their fortitude. While our basketball fans are looking for safe spots in the Big East.

lol - sure thing buddy.

im sure the rutgers faithful who sit through constant 40 point blow outs would hate to go 10-2 in a bad year.

And if your argument is that Temple won because of REVENUE... lolololololol. $7 million in tv money in like 2035 - LOL

Can you imagine caring that the TV contract is good when it’s 66-3 Ohio State?!?!

Rutgers is such a weird example because on the surface it seems like there's a ton of potential there, but it never works out

I know you are not serious.

If you are, you are surely the only on this board who believes Boise's future is brighter than Rutgerseseses.

but they still suck so who cares? why do I care about the contract? I care about W's
Expand ...

Sure, you can play San Luis Obispo Polytech and rack up those wins like Boise does. But go to a real conference and make $50m, and you can lose all you want, but you'll still fund basketball forever with the proceeds. Rutgers has a brighter future in football than Boise. It's preposterous to say otherwise.

JMick said:
lol doesn't that just show you can win being independent?

I can't even tell if you people are being serious.

Gee, why would people schedule Army over UConn.

I dunno!

This is a board about college sports champ. I can assure you that Boise State will be running laps around Rutgers until we are all cold in the ground
 
Rutgers is not well-run. Amherst and Wesleyan and Williams are far more stable.
