Key tweets, and it's all gone to Hell.

Well the new information is that media consultants are going to make a presentation to the Big 12 AD's and Presidents. I think this is a good thing. As someone else posted a few days ago, it seems like something has changed with ESPN. That they want UConn in their inventory. There is also the growth in popularity of women's basketball. Also the market size, which would be the largest in the Big 12.

I think the drive is indeed coming from espn. They are helping us get on power conf super yacht before it gets too far away.

Yikes. So it leaked again from our side and again we probably don't have the votes? Why do we keep leaking this. Its really bad optics to keep getting rejected.

Sabotage

Blame Zanetto if this goes south

And his source.

Rehiring Edsall was one of the worst mistakes. I know he was one of the few affordable coaches because UConn was in a budget pinch, but it was a bad move to hire him. I am not Nostradamus, but I still remember the day having to click into the hyperlink "UConn hires next coach" to only find out it was the retread hire of Randy Edsall. I was demoralized as I knew that was going to fail and it certainly did, even more than I thought it would.

Yep felt the same. It was one of the worst move ever. Hiring coach P was horrible too. We made some huge mistakes hiring these 2.

LOL, my thoughts exactly, we are Charlie Brown about to kick the ball, again.

I've grown numb to it.

Same. Part of it is that, though I believe it is absolutely a necessary next step for us, I'm not that thrilled about leaving the big east and joining the big 12. And, of course, part of it is also a "yeah, I've been here before. I'll believe it when I see it" attitude.

Don't forget the clinically insane Bob Diaco. The irony is that I can see the logic behind everyone of these hires. They all went catastrophically wrong, though..

This is a big news week. Can we clearly the net and only post key tweets?

Pretty please with a cherry on top?

We have 25 other discussion threads.

It's like you don't know us at all anymore.

(Sorry, it's pretty much a reflex at this point.)

The timing of all this is clearly Mora's genius attempt to distract from starting QB week1.

is this key now?



"Should the Big12 add UConn? Whether or not they should or shouldn't they are going to and I'm going to tell you why"

WOW listen to his tune change filled with facts....

FINALLY. Colorado has had 2 winning seasons in football in 15 years ...
Kansas was what UConn is now 10 years ago...
UConn is better than Colorado in sports overall...
The only reason Colorado made more money is because they had the PAC12 media deal.

How did it take this long ... he must have finally done his homework... the question is why NOW defend UConn

It doesn't matter that UConn baseball sucks? Um....

NIL front and on the 25 yard lines.

 

[upstater]

Won't believe that they will take us or won't believe that they'll publicly yank us around yet again?

Won't believe we're getting yanked around for a 3rd time

To be honest, I could totally see it happening again. I don't think it's deliberate. I just think there is a divergence between what Yormark thinks is the smart move and the opinion of some conference presidents.

If nothing else it's obvious some schools hate us for whatever reason that I don't quite understand.

Maybe they've read our message boards, lol.

 

[UConn Dan]

People are talking about UConn football

It's tame here compared to a lot of boards. If anything they should be impressed by how active it is. Most boards are dead

Haven't ventured out to other fan sites since way back in the 16 team BE days. This board, to your point, is insanely active. Something breaks and it's on here immediately.

 

[ZooCougar]

Love this. It’s a placeholder but it informs everyone outside of UConn that we have a collective.

Plus it’s being talked about. Even that tool Rovell tweeted it.

Should get the QR code next to the SC logo!

UConn is invisible to these people, and our accomplishments are always, always ignored or negatively misdescribed. We could probably win the College World Series and these know-it-alls would totally forget about it the second they shut the TV off.

Look at the reach the BoneYard has, it's big. We have our own famous bjc42 who is originally an Ohio State fan who converted to being a UConn Basketball fan. We frequently get Big East fans from other teams. Not to mention, the poster dayrooper and fans of other schools to the Conference Realignment board(s).

@ bjc42 - please like my post,
