Message: [QUOTE="CL82, post: 2463376, member: 44"] UConn is stuck in the AAC because it has aspirations of rejoining the P5. Probably because the failure to do so will render it irrelevant college athletics. Think that is an overstatement? The P5 is where the money is. No money and our athletics program will contract. There will be less televised games. Nike will be less interested in us. Our IMG contract will shrink. That means that we won't be able to afford a to pay top in the sport money to the next WBB coach (and MBB coach, and of course football will be shut down.) Whether we like it or not, football is the key to the P5 and the P5 is the key our survival as a relevant college athletic department. [/QUOTE]
