The B1G is not taking any B12 teams not named UT or OU and I doubt they'd actually want UT. KU is the only possible exception but unless they feel the need to appease Nebraska, I don't see it happening.

B1G adds: UCONN, Kansas, UCLA, USC, Stanford, and Cal to get to a 20 team super conference with four 5-team divisions
The remains of the Big 12 and Pac 12 combine into a new western conference
WV joins the ACC or AAC

It'll be 8 years since the men last won and 6 for the women (who will end that streak come April IMO). That's a lifetime ago these days. When conference realignment heats up, it's not the best time to be in a championship drought. UConn needs to have its brand front and center, and the only way it can do that is by winning basketball titles otherwise it's just another nameless face in a mid-major Catholic basketball league.

It may be forgotten but...

Championship drought?

I can't take that characterization seriously. It is very hard to win a national championship. 2 in 10 years and you call it a drought?

I can see there's an argument that the championships have been forgotten but no one is calling it a drought.

if we are in a drought what is it called at BC, Pitt, Cuse or Rutgers?

as a point of comparison, i would be curious to know the average tv audience for uconn (even back when we were in big east if that is a fairer comparison). anyone know where to get that data?

Lol, well if a fan board doesn't have us in I guess we should shut down the whole program.

(BTW, was your comment relevant to my post? What, you couldn't wait for someone to actually say UConn was a candidate before you shot your load?)

My post was not inaccurate. It is what was posted on the ND board. I thought it odd that they would have the likes of coastal carolina on the list potential ACC invites, along with some AAC members and no mention of UConn. Like all fan boards, there is much hyperbole and speculation and that is understood. I don't care who is posting, to be not in the conversation is not a very good thing in my opinion. I am waiting for UConn's invite to the B1G to "shoot". I guess I struck a nerve to have you get so "testy".

I because I laughed at the fact that your post was entirely irrelevant to mine? Lol.

Updated pod talk with Arizona beat writer tells me that both of the Arizona schools would very likely be in a pod with #Utes and #Buffs, while #OKState, #TexasTech, #KState and whomever the fourth #Big12 refugee is would be in another pod. Said new commish "just blowing smoke".

No chance we go before Colorado and Oregon. A Big 24 gets us in. That's if they want an Eastern Division.

He does not need a job, he lives off residuals…

Regarding the first rule of conference realignment (UConn gets screwed). if AAC picks up the Big 12 leftovers and that leads to a higher paying tv contract for the AAC after we left then all should be right in the world. The first rule lives again.
