Message: [QUOTE="Jetskies, post: 5083791, member: 12253"] I never said we'd get the same credit for a Boise win versus a low-level mid-major basketball team. I said The Risk/Reward equation to having UConn BBall play a MW/Pac12 team (and away games, to boot) IS NOT WORTH IT. And 1000% Certainly not worth agreeing to have a 6x nat'l champion travel to the middle of the rockies to play (insert_name) state university. Football is a completely different story, entirely. Many UConn fans will admit that we're beggars knocking at any conference door that will open (maybe except the MAC or CUSA) this is what is so unique and frankly difficult about being the athletic Director at UConn - the polar opposite experiences in managing an elite BBall team (M/W) with a trash (albeit improving) FBall team. the logic you're referencing has nothing to do with our football perception. FYI, we're not taken seriously because we've sucked at football for about 13 years. that's it. nothing more/less. [/QUOTE]
