Message: [QUOTE="zepfan, post: 3032289, member: 8094"] The next two national championships with Hurley at the helm.... you have to be nuts not to take this!!! That would make 6 NCs in the past 21 years (makes us a blue blood again). It would solidify Hurley as a great coach, would give the AAC more credibility, and I have no doubts Hurley would know how to capitalize on this achievement by getting more and more top level recruits (this was KO's failing after the 2014 NC). Recruits would be fighting their way to get to UConn! Getting into the ACC doesn't automatically equate with winning. Also, UConn could easily schedule a tough non-conference schedule (6 to 8 games against ACC caliber teams) to satisfy those who say the AAC is not a premier league. "You want to win championships our play against Wake Forest, Pitt, Duke and North Carolina twice a year?" You can still play Arizona, Oregon, Villanova, and 4 other top 25 teams every year. Easy choice in my opinion. [/QUOTE]
