Message: [QUOTE="AZHuskiePop, post: 4849732, member: 1609"] Actually when we got Danny who was the best available coach out there we were in the AAC . He recruited Akok , and Bouk when we were still in that conference . Him being Northeastern Basketball royalty he was obviously going to have huge recruiting pull in that important area rewardless of where he was .Also at his third program he had assembled a competent staff of trusted assistants., To be truthful I saw the flirtation with the Big 12 as an opportunity to get us into the ACC or better , although inclusion in the B12 wouldn’t have hurt his ability to recruit in fact with more resources in this pay for play world it could be easier . 99% of non partial observers saw UConn’s return to the Big East as an attempt to at least salvage basketball but giving up on football and any future power conference membership . I think that might have been the initial intent but realization of message caused an about face . [/QUOTE]
