Message: [QUOTE="Dooley, post: 1109129, member: 2920"] I don't think CCG deregulation means that UCONN will get an accelerated invite. But I [I]do[/I] think it should be viewed as welcome news by UCONN fans in that it removes a barrier to help UCONN get out of AAC purgatory: the ol' 'you-need-a-partner' barrier. It's not preferable to have an odd number of teams for scheduling but the B1G did go through a long stretch where it had 11 members. It's not the top choice, but it also isn't the worst thing in the world. All that said, UCONN still needs to play catchup on the research end, endowment and jumpstarting our flatlined football program before we go anywhere. [/QUOTE]
