Who is Uncle UConn? That's a new one. Is his nephew the Dude? Does he own a car wash?

Gotta get the car wash going again:

Gotta get the car wash going again:

There are chapters of our CR odyssey where I look at it and just say, wtf. The Car Wash was a prime example of this. The obsession with specific realignment experts like "The Dude" and Frank the Tank is another. Someone needs to write a book on this. However, right now it's a sad story to tell.

As I recollect, the whole car wash thing was originally parody that ended up getting taken seriously by some on the board. After a while, the poster pivoted and started making up faux serious predictions and eventually flamed out. I suspect that most on the board "were in on the joke" and just went along with it because it was a funny running bit for a while.

Yeah I can't remember exactly how it started. I remember it getting more and more ludicrous as it went on. I also remember some people taking it very seriously while others ran with the joke. I did appreciate it's absurdity and it's place in the history of this CR board.

This lost whatever sliver of info this person had when they made it seem the ACC was the conference looking. Hell needs to freeze before they take us in CR

The addition of UConn and Notre Dame is still the most logical move that The B1G could pull off IMO. It won't happen because of Domer Exceptionalism, but on paper it makes too much sense. The addition of ND would likely raise the overall share value for all members of the conference including The Irish upon their joining. UConn could be on a graduated revenue plan like RU and UMD initially were on and then ramp up as the conference has its next window of rights negotiations.

The addition of Husky M/W basketball, hockey, and yes even football would add value to the conference based on the quality of the programs and the increased exposure of the conference to the market. UConn and ND are currently the two most "available" programs from a contractual standpoint as well. Again, nothing happens because of ND, but damn it, it just works so well. Total domination of the Pacific Coast, Midwest, Northeast, and Mid-Atlantic Regions. In the early 2030's you work on peeling UNC and UVA or UNC and GT away from The ACC and close up shop.

lol this can be interpreted in a million ways…
No BIG = No Big Ten or Big 12
By all ACCounts = No ACC or Yes ACC
Means nothing

In this season of Hope, who is to say what is it isn't real?

Wait, are you trying to say that cryptic Twitter posts from a guy who's handle is "uncle UConn" don't have any impact whatsoever on our conference realignment prospects?

The. Car Wash thing was a poster who ran into a friend who I believe was a Wake or NCS booster at a car wash . The booster confided in him he heard. a rumor that UConn to the ACC was a done deal. So it was speculation from a ACC booster ( of unknown influence ) passing on a rumor. .

I feel like we’ve moved on from hell into purgatory. We could easily fall back into hell though.

Nice find! I feel like there was at least another thread before this.

All I want for Christmas is to win Mega Millions and for UConn to be in a Power 4 conference. Is that too much to ask for?
