Jeff Jacobs: Herbst happy UConn ‘back to the place where all the magic happened.’

[Huskymagic]

UCONN didn't get into the ACC for 3 simple reasons

1.) Loyalty. We were the most loyal school to the Big East, its in our DNA as Huskies. We seek to build not destroy, betray, and leave when the going gets tough. This was to our detriment in this situation.

2.) We didn't sell or market ourselves to the ACC, but relied strictly on our athletic success to make the decision for them.

3.) Past grievances and politics conspired to punish us for being the new kid on the block seeking to take the throne from the established planters of athletics. For not kissing the ring, and accepting ESPN's and the ACC's plot to destroy the BIG EAST so casually.

PS: In the end, UCONN will be victorious. Justice will be served to ESPN, the ACC, and our traitorous comrades. It will probably look like this:

Former Miami President Donna Shalala hated that UConn sued them. They and BC are the two schools that initially let the charge against UConn. The others then fell in line.

True for Round 1, but FSU lead the charge for Round 2.

That's a silly statement.

Surprised it wasn't a stronger comment John.

That's a silly statement.

OK, we're even. You make silly golf-related statements. Do you want to make that Bryson bet or not?
