Message: [QUOTE="Kolumbo, post: 5199378, member: 4613"] we paid to leave the AAC and that is a sunk cost. We did it to save basketball, but for football, it was a very good conference. it is irrelevant to what UConn does going forward. It remains to be seen if football independence is a long-term solution. I'm not sure if the Big 12 is interested anymore but I don't think anyone thinks the status quo is the solution. Therefore, I'm open to all options. There are two remaining issues: 1. Football conference affiliation 2. Basketball is getting shaken down in the BE Not that the rankings are the end all, but here are the number of basketball programs ranked. This is a problem for the Big East: 9 - SEC 5 - Big 12 5 - Big 10 3 - ACC 2 - Big East 1 - AAC [/QUOTE]
