Message: [QUOTE="AntG168, post: 3194077, member: 6716"] No one is blaming the football program. But the conference that was best for them is horrible for our basketball programs. Call it s scapegoat all you want. Recruiting was an uphill battle in the AAC. We can start pulling in top 10 classes consistently in the Big Beast. We can damn near put a strangle hold on the north east. The football program isn’t directly responsible for the basketball programs plummet from grace. But the fact is that there is no conference available to us at the moment where both can simultaneously reach their full potential. So a decision had to be made on which program to put in position to reach their potential. The basketball program has proven its capable of reaching the elite goal in its respective sport. The football team hasn’t proven it can be consistently competitive. The decision was an easy one. And anyone who is “a fan of UConn” should understand that [/QUOTE]
