History is with you. It hasn't worked out for most schools.
UConn Athletics belongs in a power conference for all sports. Its peers are Rutgers, Virginia, North Carolina, Penn State, Maryland etc.
I concur. Connecticut is packed with football fans, just not UConn football fans. But CT fans will support big-time CFB. The Big 12 qualifies.
I have been saying this for oh like the last 25 years. My daughter graduated in 2016 and never cared about football. Why? Because she had to take a yellow school bus to get to the games so she never went. She loves men’s hoops though. She walked to Gampel.
Yep, for certain marquee brands only this keeping down the physical footprint. Everything else could be accessed via catalogue.
True, but it's also not an argument based in reality...so there's that.
The indicators were all there, as they often are. It amazes me how often people get stuck in the mindset of "the way things are are the way they will always be", when experience tells us that's almost certainly not the case.
Except it’s ~$30 million better annually. And no one has said we need to build a new stadium but expanding its capacity to 50k might be a reasonable prerequisite.
Some people only care about basketball. If UConn doesn’t go then maybe St. John’s and Villanova leave big east for big 12 think about it.
It can also be used for a single university graduation ceremony, freshmen orientation, various campus events
It isn't ~$30 million more. It is ~$30 total and athletic department expenditure will increase to meet the challenges of stepping up into a more competitive conference in most sports.
I’m not hyping it up, it’s mediocre but better than the others. And I would never have any Kobe handle, only this one. Just a kid from New Haven.
Yo dude, if UConn is 2-2 in the Big 12 playing TCU ( Houston, or anyone actually) at the Rent and a student doesn’t take the “yellow bus” they better be in the library studying for Advanced Calculus 6.
She never missed a mens hoop game. She also was a double major who graduated with 157 credits, worked part time in the financial office and is now earning well into 6 figures. And the yellow bus you quote me on really was a yellow bus. My point is that if the stadium was on campus she would have gone to every game and would have become a big fan. Instead she doesn’t give a darn about UConn football
With a plastic flask in your pocket the yellow buses sound like a good time
Is that a fancy way of saying a gatorade bottle half full of dubra?
I hope u went long on Amzn when it went ipo. I was smart enough to buy it…then dumb enough to sell it.Yep, for certain marquee brands only this keeping down the physical footprint. Everything else could be accessed via catalogue.
I was assured, however, that people would never buy products by just looking at a picture and a description. They felt I was underestimating the need for tactile experience to facilitate decision-making.
