"Auriemma said he doesn't anticipate UConn's recruiting or non-conference scheduling to be impacted by the weakened state of the conference it will be playing in."

Well, of course. What's he going to say? I doubt he really believes this.

Geno has been to known to say what he believes.

I hope he's right about the recruiting. The new teams in the Pot Luck conference will have to step up quickly to make quality of conference opponents a valid part of the recruting pitch. I think/hope that Geno has a good enough relationship with other OOC programs that we can maintain the quality of our OOC matches.

I have wondered this week end as I hear about the changes of the BEC if conferences like the ACC can have one set of teams for football and another for basketball. I know the UCONN football fans might not like the outcome but it would be great for the basketball programs.
