Message: [QUOTE="storrsroars, post: 3308144, member: 2500"] The MBA wife and I were talking about this last night. If UConn makes the finances work - even just cutting losses to minimum while still not showing profit - their example is going to be compelling to a number of G5s and maybe even weak sisters of P5 who see writing on the wall. The wife basically asserts that there are only two conferences: 1) SEC, 2) B1G, and #2 by a wide margin. Other than Clemson and sometimes Oklahoma, everybody else is more or less interchangeable meh, with the exception of some schools that will likely always remain some level of bad. She wonders why is ESPN (or any other outlet) is handing out big money for mediocre product, especially PAC10 and ACC (and mind you, she's a Pitt double alum/season tix holder). Most eastern schools used to be independent. It worked for years. It could again. [/QUOTE]
