Not much, I agree.

In the NIL era? Alumni activation is huge.

That's a good point. I just question if we would get enough activation to justify giving up a home game. I know we wouldn't get enough attention from the local media. They don't care.

UCONN home game in Bridgeport against Quinnipiac or Fairfield would be nice

Just to remind those who may have forgotten, they did play a game in Bridgeport once. The team was good and they didn't fill the building. IIRC, the sentiment at the time was "never again".

If we want a game for those in this part of the state to attend there is no better spot than MSG.

The one we tried in Bridgeport was setup for failure. Early weekday tipoff around the holidays and ticket prices were noticeably higher than other home games at the time.

I understand what they were trying to do but they could have done it much better with an MSG game.

I would also like to see us play Yale and one other top-end Ivy League program (Princeton, Cornell, or Harvard).

Definitely Yale because lately they have recruited more high level players, some of whom would be good portal entries.

Because of Yale's proximity to UConn, the staff could be visible at some of their games if we had interest in any of their players.

I suppose this could be applied to Harvard if they had portalable players too.

Nothing we don't know already but figured I would post this article. Slow news week.

Hurley mentioned on one of his podcast appearances (forget which one) that we'd have a big on-campus non-conference game this year, recognizing that this was a hole in the schedule last year. I wonder if he was alluding to the Baylor game or if there might be something else in the works.

It has to be Baylor.
