The timing of the leaks and Uconn visits just did not make sense.
Why do it right before season kickoff? Why not wait until season over or when Uconn BB is cooking???

The leaks came from the Big 12 and they ultimately did not matter. Timing is not right for any league to expand.

Yeah, they're worried about our academics.

And I didn't date Claudia Schiffer because she was too tall ........

Big East fans are so adorable.

I think we are all in Acceptance so I am not sure why this guy isn't

How much cooking does BB have to do? These things tend to always leak or happen right before FB season. The leaks were intended sabotage.

We only have to win 5 national championships in a row.

You mean 500. And even then the TCU president will point out that one game against Providence where they saw some empty seats while the president of WVU questions our academics because of a decline in our N&WR ranking from #62 to #63.

This is conference realignment we are talking about. Its either 5 national championships in a row in men's basketball with a few women championships orrrr two WHOLE seasons over .500 of not embarrassingly bad football... like most of the Big12 today. It's pretty crazy that the later is so impossible.

Thanos was a snap of the fingers away from inevitable.

Flugar seemed really confident, claiming that UConn wouldn’t get an invite in 2024, but that 2025 is a different story. I think he knows something. To be clear, he still hasn’t predicted whether UConn will get in, and refuses to, but he definitely seems to know something. We’re all rightfully upset right now, but if there’s one thing we’ve known for well over a decade, it’s that things will heat up again at some point. The waiting for each round seems to get shorter as time goes on.

Unless they were football championships, I'm not sure it would matter.

Why is my post above being moderated? Honest question. Are my posts on hold? Or certain key words? Links?

I see it. The link works.

I emailed him to edit and retract. He edited, but no retraction. I wish I had screenshotted the stupid article. At least the google alert from the the draft still shows the Rob Reinhart stupidity.

Tony makes great charts. And that is all I can say about of a lot of Tony’s content. He died once on the hill that p12 was never going to be pulled apart. I’m sure he’s had other misses. Great charts though- very handy.

Aaron Torres thinks that UConn will eventually land in the Big 12. Starts at around 47:00.

I agree. “Jointly” is key. I think it basically comes down to what happens with FSU and Clemson, and once they leave, I think Yormark will have the go ahead to take UConn with ACC schools. Rule #1 be damned.

Thoroughly enjoyable!! He's got some great one liners in there. Totally worth a listen.

That was some good crap. Sounds like smart people in Big 12 country are catching onto UConn’s brand picking up on what Yormark is putting down. Can’t wait for the presidents to catch up!

Maybe we can introduce a pass the hat program

It is important to remember that some of the programs that seem to be really rich have already spent every nickel of revenue that comes in the door, before they get to paying the players.

And yet UConn continues to be punished for doing more with less.

Not to start another stadium debate because nothing will be happening unless a P invite materialized. but this looks entertaining

A stadium DJ (DJ Dogpound) was the start of our fall .... and looks like the start of FSU's too.
