If the Big East asks for a GOR, and NBC is prepared to pay over $10MM per school, UConn better freaking sign it. Destroying the athletic program and the Big East will NOT teach the ACC or ESPN a lesson.
If the ACC didn't add UConn this time, it is not adding UConn unless the ACC completely collapses. The only way to convince the ACC that UConn will not be around forever is to do something to take UConn off the market. UConn should verbally agree to whatever Aresco wants contingent on a decent payday from NBC.
