Message: [QUOTE="UConnDan97, post: 2375103, member: 2305"] There are multiple things going on here. First, most people wouldn't care who we were playing against if we were making 30 million a year while others were making 5 million a year. The fiscal disparity in the wrong direction is the underlying hatred that most folks have for the league. We have no problem scheduling a game against GTown, Cuse, or any other former rival whenever we want to. Second, we just happened to enter the AAC at a time when our basketball team got hit with a ridiculous, retroactive scholarship penalty. It also happened to be the same time our football coach left (thankfully he's back) and we suffered through two bums for 6 years. There's light at the end of the tunnel for both bball and football. Even in the AAC. What we need now is to get a better contact in the next negotiation or perhaps demand our tier 3 rights back if we get a crappy deal, so that we can remain a powerhouse athletic department... [/QUOTE]
