Ha! Yeah I think so.
When I was a freshman, there were still dorms on campus that were either all male or all female and they were great places to go hang out and meet w/ the opposite sex for fun....dining was family style sit down meals with food coming out from the kitchens, carried by "waiters" who were actually rotating dorm residents, food on large plates /bowls to be passed around the tables.....Gampel Pavilion didn't exist. I was enrolled as as student on campus when Gampel Pavilion was underconstruction and was in the student section when Calhoun's huskies took on St. John's in the first game in Gampel. For the record, the 1986 recruiting class (of which I was not part of) I went somewhere else first..... has the all-time 5 year winning percentage record at UConn and has two conference titles. 2007 has two conference titles and is just behind in winning percentage. 1994 ranks third all time in 5 year winning percentage, has only one conference title, BUT owns the only 10 win season all time.
THe 100+ year history of UConn football doesn't have a storied winning tradition - were something like 30 games under .500 all time...but since 1980 - UConn is winner in football, at whatever level we've played and against whomever we've played.
I expect it to continue.
I read somewhere recently that Blidi said that one 2012 year's goals is to be the first team to win the big east title outright.
I love that goal, and will be rooting like hell for it.
As for lacrosse - i think that a big east championship in lacrosse is fantastic, and would love to see such an event held at Rentschler field.
