Imagine the worst possible thing for UConn and that is what will happen.

If we’re just treading water hoping for some ACC remnants to show up with a lifeboat then we will certainly end up drowning.

Agree with part 1.

I do think though (maybe wishfully) that if we can put together a semi-competent program over the next 5-6 years, we’ll be in a good position for the ACC breakup.

I really wish UConn would be more proactive and not monitoring. I would be on the phone with Yormark and the Big 12 working out a deal right now similar to what the PAC leftovers are doing. Big East basketball is starting to show signs of cracking. Only a matter of time.

We need a home for football pronto.

The Big East as a long term plan is not tenable. We really don’t have any great options other than to give things away for free.

Historic Football Powers not in the SEC/B1G that would bring value to both: Florida State, Clemson, Miami, Notre Dame
Other programs that could carry their weight in revenue in either the SEC/B1G and would bring value to both: North Carolina
Other programs that may get a look from either the SEC or B1G based on new markets: Virginia (B1G/SEC), Virginia Tech (SEC), North Carolina State (SEC), Georgia Tech (B1G)
May be included as a tag along: Duke (SEC/B1G)

I think this is the short list of anyone who still has a shot at joining either the B1G or SEC. Some have much better odds than others, but I don't think anyone else has a snowballs chance.

Agree.

Though I think AZ CO UT -- semi-large but rapidly growing states -- could be valuable someday. Not now, but might get some interest in a decade.

UConn to the Bigxx in 10 years then after global warming renders AZ a wasteland... there's a chance it could happen, perhaps 0.01%, but it's a higher probability than the ACC inviting us.

When a girl turns you down twice for a date do you keep calling/texting her?
 
buddy said:
I wouldn't know. No one has ever turned me down. Of course, I had very low standards. Alas, I wouldn't call the SEC or B1G, but the Big 12 is doable, in my opinion. UConn needs a great salesman.

Does anyone else feel like there has been at least one TRO in buddies life at one point in time?

I don't know what your profession is, but that is quite an incitefuI deduction. I did have one, but so did the opposing party! I still won. They moved shortly thereafter. My point is persistence is required. Time for UConn to stop monitoring and get moving.
