I think as UConn athletics moves further into the future a few things have become pretty apparent (if they already weren't):

1) President Herbst is ambivalent and ignorant to the former status of our athletic programs. "Winners who want to win."

2) Warde was absolutely clueless with regards to the ACC/Louisville fiasco. Whether it ultimately was his inaction or Jurich's moves, his public comments didn't do anything to help us. Oh, and Diaco.

3) UConn's inability to capture the momentum of Calhoun's dominance and the rise of Edsall and FBS football under the director of Hathaway put us behind the 8 ball. UConn can tout the 6th borough all they want, but finishing 5th in the AAC in hoop and last in football doesn't resonate. The time to have done this was 15 years ago amiss Top 10 hoop rankings, titles and BCS football.

4) We're in the AAC for the long haul, due to 1, 2 and 3. I've started to focus my attention elsewhere aside from the conference dilemma because it's just too depressing.
