Time is right for UConn to get into the ACC

Ehhh. Maybe not while it’s being sued and we don’t even know what we would be joining.

 

[Husky25]

About a decade ago, the ACC schools were complicit in destroyed a perfectly viable "Power 6" football conference, locked each member institution in for roughly $30 million/year, for 20 years, locked everyone else out for nothing, with no escalator clause, and now they are crying?

Is that about right?

 

[Ha Who]

Next…

Remember the CSNY song. Teach your children well.

Btw- I am still firmly in the UConn Big 12 camp.

Obviously have to take the invite if it comes, but screw those people in the ACC. Horrendously run and have been for 30+ years.

Ever see the movie, The Lateshift, about how Jay Leno succeeded Johnny Carson and David Letterman wound up at CBS?

"They aren't offering you The Johnny Carson Tonight Show. That's gone forever. They're offering you damaged goods. The Jay Leno Show. And they're not even offering it to you now. They're making you wait."

"...It's leftovers. It's shoddy."

UNC and Miami will be the next to file lawsuits.

Imagine joining the ACC and all that’s left is BC and Weak Forest.

 

[Bongo Fury]

I wonder if they have a home. SDSU entered the transfer portal too early.

 

[ZooCougar]

This is special. We have to find a way to preserve this.




That won’t happen in Greensboro.

If the ACC falls apart then the Big East needs to strike.

I don’t want to join the new version of the AAC.

The Big 12 will not be picking us.

Greg Flugaur has been saying for months that UNC and Clemson are tied at the hip and have been working behind the scenes on an exit strategy. He thinks they are SEC-bound. The only question is if NCSU has to go along for the ride or not.

Flugaur also said that the UVa president called VT, Syracuse, Wake Forest, Duke, and BC on December 21st to formulate lawsuit strategy. Sounds crazy, but who knows?

Yes, I heard him recently say this. I haven't had a chance to sit down and listen to all his shows as he has been busy putting them out daily recently. I haven't tuned in enough to know the back story to this, but I did hear him say it.

The Virginia president actually declared that he had done so in an affidavit that was attached to an amendment filed yesterday in North Carolina.

UConn will still play basketball games at MSG regardless of the conference they are in.

There will be much more than two schools left. UConn needs to move quickly here. Even if a half dozen schools leave, (I think the number will be less given there are only a few landing spots open for defectors) UConn's basketball dominance will help the ACC have a basketball renaissance. My bigger concern are some of these misguided UConn fans who don't care what the so-called Big East pays its members and who don't want to leave.

Agree. Thinking it may make sense to let dust settle before making any decisions.

Yes, it's a special thing, but you do not hold an entire athletic department hostage for three days in New York City.

In a nutshell, yes lol

Strike what? With what?

I don’t see the appeal. Come here, throw your football program into the void, make 1/15th the money you use to make and in exchange, we will give you 500 tickets to a tournament at MSG every March.

Don’t see that getting it done.
