We have a coach who won’t be here forever, who half the BY was ready to run out of town 18 months ago. We have the BY cheering when every good player goes pro after a year or two. The portal has made that less of an issue. If the portal is modified somehow to reduce the ease of program jumping, the future changes for UConn. I would not be blinded by current success. The next  season or two will tell us more about how well we do with all of the early departures.

In the meantime we have 2 major sports that are on the flip side of each other.  Football without conference affiliation will be doing well to have modestly successful seasons do long as they need to keep power conference teams for a third of the schedule.  With the current portal we can already see that our better under recruited players leave for what they see as greener pastures. And the women’s basketball program without Geno will have an uncertain future because basically the BE has them and really nobody else. I think being on the outside looking in sucks for UConn, but i’m ancient so it probably doesn’t matter to me.
