I would hope that Warde wouldn't be in that position. If UConn were to play the Leprechauns at a "local" venue (Fenway, Gillette, Yankee, Citi, Meadowlands), I would hope that Warde gets it in writing as a UConn home game as part of a multi-date home & home series & only allots 25% of the seats to N.D.
If ND wants to play UConn 5 times, with 2 at the Rent and 2 at South Bend, and an ND home game at one of the pro stadiums in NY or MA then Warde should sign that deal immediately.
Giving up one road game to be played at a venue where our fans can buy tix on the secondary market and drive or take the train to the game is an acceptable price to get not one, but TWO home games against a high profile team. We'd be guaranteed 3 nationally televised games, and possibly all 5.
