There is absolutely no way a university like UConn and what it brings with tv markets, athletic success and size will be left out of CR. We have discussed ad nauseam the reasons UConn was shut out of the initial rounds. The reactionary panic of the ACC to include Louisville is a decision they will most likely regret long term. Meanwhile, and more importantly, the Big 10 has essentially stated publicly that expansion eastward is its lone goal. The additions of Maryland and Rutgers was the beginning not the end. There is no coherent reason to believe that those two moves alone will complete the Big 10's plan. In fact, we could argue that there is really no way that those two schools would have been added without a larger plan. CR is not done. Delaney is proactive. Swofford is reactive. I am all in on the next move coming from the Big 10 and it including UConn. Read between the lines of the numerous things the Big 10 have already said and done. Next, draw a parallel to the numerous subtle actions of this university that scream Big 10 profile. Finally, interpret the not so subtle actions of the world wide leader against this university. It all adds up to 1 answer. UConn to the Big 10 for the 2016-17 athletic season!
