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

We need a new thread titled Imminent Doom Tweets. Damn I hope our AD and President have a roadmap and can execute to get us to P4 asap. We are on the edge of a very bad outcome.

I think you’re right lol. Either that or get rid of it all together. Maybe we’d finally get an invite without the curse of this 957 page thread

They had a road map.

And then it got leaked on a rando’s podcast, torn to shreds by the national media and then we got shiv’d in the back by our own sitting US senator.

It’s tough to come up with another road map after that.

Have to wait to hit 1000 pages.

Sometimes you post intelligent stuff. This is an example of that.

Zanetto leaked news, it torpedoed our chances and it was all about boosting his YouTube follower count.

You can’t make up some UConn people.

Not what happened.

Oh that’s exactly what happened. We are our own worst enemy.

Not sure I'm following this latest argument. But for some podcaster braking news of ongoing discussions UConn would be in the Big 12+4?
Didn't realize Zanetto's crappy little podcast had such impact and that the deal would have been completed and in the bank before anyone else got wind of it and tried to object.

It's not a new argument.

The argument has long been that the leak of the conversation was intentionally done to tank things before Yormark might be able to get traction working behind the scenes to get the votes. If Yormark couldn't get the votes, then the hope was nothing would've gotten out in the near-term (or in a way either party had to acknowledge the talks happened). The way it worked out, both UConn and Yormark ended up with egg on their face. The only hope of the move going through was for it to be fait accompli prior to it getting out.

Zanetto didn't do anything wrong... he was simply the tool that was used by his source to get the word out to where it would be checked and put out into the mainstream media (ESPN, local newspapers, etc). This in turn allowed both, the opposition in Connecticut (Senator Murphy, Speaker Ritter), and the Big XII media to jump out in front of Big XII boosters to get out there with their arguments against the move (the detractors, saying that the Big East was the better home; the Big XII media returning to their arguments against UConn football)

I prefer the Big South.

I don't think he's actually a UConn guy. I think that he just picked the best available team to launch his locked on show.

Zanetto is the worst UConn podcaster. He mostly spouts opinions. Why he is part of the Locked On franchise is a mystery. He is a net negative for the UConn sports community.

Interesting that Cully said that Mike Burton had leaked to him but told Cully to sit on it. Multiple leaks or did Burton leak to multiple podcasters?

He also took a crap all over Jared. "A prominent guy at UConn think he's a d.o.u.che."

(Cully is tough to listen to. He sounds like he's board listening to himself.)

OMG Dave Schuman on a podcast! He lived on my floor in McMahon

Wow he was really dragging Jarred and based on what people at UConn are saying, but said Mike Burton values him so at least that's good.

If you're not a diehard, it is tough listen. Cully meanders all over the place. But he is good for one laugh out loud moment every episode. Last week he called former Yale coach Jack Siedlecki an "annoying bald bleep" when they coached together. Had me in stitches.

Is Jared annoying to anyone here? Thought so.

For a second I thought you were saying Jared had over a million listens. I thinking that's great since he is (was?) one of us.
