Message: [QUOTE="nelsonmuntz, post: 5083145, member: 833"] It is cute how some of you think that UConn's W/L under Edsall 2.0 is so relevant to any decision anyone makes anywhere in the world. UConn as football-only has value to the MWC for two reasons: 1) brand value of a school that fans will recognize, and 2) UConn's potential to generate NIL and other revenue to compete at a high G5 level. UConn's 5 year average attendance is similar or better than every other candidate for Pac 12 membership, and 2023 attendance is better than all of them. And that is with an independent schedule playing whatever detritus we can book. UConn would average over 30,000/game in the Pac 12, which would put us only behind Boise and Oregon State. As for NIL, UConn is the only show in town in a mid-sized, wealthy state. We will always do fine there unless the athletic department blows it. [/QUOTE]
