Message: [QUOTE="Drew, post: 5065607, member: 3723"] Someone should do some digging to see who was supportive last go round in 2023- IIRC eventually there were enough votes for us to get in if they didn’t get the P12 schools. I will say, this is a much more “united“ front from the outside than last year was. Last year felt like Yormark solo going to bat for UConn, whereas the Endeavor third-party support is massive as they are hired to be trusted advisors to the conference. Couple that with ESPN’s support and this feels closer than it really ever has before, just need to dangle something for FOX to enjoy (guarantee x number of road/neutral games against top tier Big East teams through 2031 to wind up on FOX networks more than likely.. think Villanova, Creighton, St John’s) and at that point I can’t imagine a world where league members can legitimately evaluate the situation and come away with a “No” vote unless they just don’t want to be associated with Connecticut.
