I just heard from a guy whose cousin sells blocks of marble. Apparently UConn just bought a slab, perhaps for a statue of AD DB!

I'm sure if they buy a ticket they'd be able to attend a Big XII game. @FriarJ is right though. Oregon State has a damned good football team at the moment and UConn fans on this board have some warped views of colleges outside the northeast and maybe a few big names like Michigan and Ohio State.

I have season tickets to the other Huskies. I get my fill of high end college football in a massive packed stadium with a game day environment as good as any in the country. The arrogant ignorance on this board is off the charts. Oregon State is a very good team.

I want you to go, I hope you go. But man do your fans need a wake up call to what real CFB actually looks like. It’s hard to understand why you crap on other schools so much with a record like yours. Like I said it’s impressive. You should count yourself lucky that your fabulous basketball program might drag your pathetic football program to a P5 level and thank all those crappy schools that allow it to happen.

If we do end up getting invited, someone better find that damn ConFLiCT trophy or get a new one made at Things Remembered. I'll be bringing my red pants down from the attic

The statue will be Times New Roman, font sized 2,762 of the words "AD Dave".

Things Remembered filed for bankruptcy years ago, so you'll have to get someone else to do your engraving.

And I just threw up in my mouth a little.

It couldn't get more official than that.

Good tweet summarizing UCONN key facts to the B12.

I like this. Hopefully his zero followers blast this out in full force.

Could be a new account. The picture is awesome though.

I mean, if the friend of a friend of a friend's brother's girlfriend actually told him this in a car wash, it would be more credible.

When you're right, you're right.

He/She also has some good looking recipes. It’s worth a follow, lol.

That Fight Back.... That's the arrogance that landed the PAC where it is now. Believing that you have some level of superiority and can inflict academic and athletic pain. Please.

I did not realize Oregon State was a sacred cow. That statement was not arrogant at all (maybe ignorant?). I genuinely did not realize there was such a school as Oregon State and that they were in the PAC 10. Aside from UConn bball and casually football, I am a grown up, and devote my time to grown up endeavors.

You should imagine a world where not everyone thinks the things that you value also view them as the center of their universe.

If it’s possible, the PAC leadership needs to have some serious discussions with themselves, media outlets, and other conferences. They need to honestly assess potential future realignment.

Assuming (hoping) UCONN and Colorado are going to the Big 12, and possibly Arizona and ASU, they need to gage Oregon and Washington seriousness in going B1G. I think they then have two options.

One, don’t rush to replace members yet. Gage B1G, SEC, and Big 12 interest in ACC members. Hypothetically say Virginia and UNC to B1G (with Oregon and Washington). Clemson, Florida St, NC State, and Virginia Tech to SEC. And Syracuse and Louisville to Big 12. Then partner up with some remaining ACC (Ga Tech, Duke) and G5 teams aligned with university/athletic culture. Thus creating the fourth P4 national conference.

Or two. Look into merging with MWC (and west coast G5’s) to create an “island” west conference focusing on content for PCT zone.

At some point these conferences need to realize they are looking like mafia families and need to work under a commission.

They aren't. Friar was a bit hostile, and he's wrong about UConn football being a "pathetic program". It's been better than a lot of P5 FBS programs since we jumped up to that level. He's also correct about UConn fans being myopic and you pretty much confirmed what he was saying. People in the northeast often have a willful blindness to places they don't go or find interesting and our fans show it. The move to the Big XII should provide some education for them.
