Message: [QUOTE="Kolumbo, post: 5070541, member: 4613"] UConn needs to be smart about any moves obviously. Your realities may not match UConn's realities. I think we all agree that a move to the Big 12 has to come with guarantees. I agree that UConn must negotiate smartly because the UConn brand is worth it. 1. UConn needs a football schedule alliance with the Big 12 at a minimum which will strengthen football and bring in additional revenue 2. Agreement needs to define the details, no reneging and UConn needs to protect itself. 3. UConn competed in the Big East and the Big 12 is not a murderers' row. It's very solid top to bottom which is where UConn can strive to be. "It's doable." 4. I have not read that the Big 12 will not allow UConn to play in The Rent. UConn will be playing in The Rent for at minimum several years. Membership in the Big 12 will bring in much higher revenue to help pay for the stadium solution [/QUOTE]
