[QUOTE="Dooley, post: 1422484, member: 2920"]
So let me get this straight: UConn's football program is showing a pulse for the first time in 3 years (including a substantial uptick in recruiting), the university is continuing to build academic relationships with other top AAU research universities (latest are Yale and Wisconsin), UConn hoops recruiting is back to elite levels, and now, the B1G just announced that we meet their "P5 profile" for scheduling IN FOOTBALL...and we are discussing crushing football and hoops again?!?!

NOBODY WANTS TO STAY IN THE AAC.  NOT ME.  NOT NELSON.  NOT AACMAN.  NOT WARDE.  NOT DIACO.  NOT HERBST.  NOBODY.  We are not discussing the benefits of staying in the AAC...we are discussing what is best for UConn to get into the P5.  Shuffling around our entire athletic department (and paying unnecessary exit fees) when we're building so many relationships with the B1G is not the answer.  Moving football Independent and permanently disabling our hoops program and sentencing it to a mid-major conference is not how to build relationships with the B1G.
