[B]“I did have conversations with UConn and Gonzaga, and unfortunately, things didn’t work out, only because the dream scenario unfolded for us.[/B] So those conversations are no longer,” Yormark said. “I’m a big admirer of both of those programs, they’re fantastic for all the right reasons. But right now I’m focused on the transition of those four (schools) in right now.” [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.courant.com/2023/08/16/big-12-commissioner-brett-yormark-says-uconn-wasnt-added-only-because-dream-scenario-unfolded/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
