Message: [QUOTE="UConnfan8, post: 2030899, member: 1743"] You are correct in every sense, its unfortunate that some people on here just refuse to believe that a P5 conference isn't calling for us anytime soon (evidenced by months ago) and that because of this conference, our basketball team IS falling behind the 8 ball (for WHATEVER reason- Ollie as a coach, non development....WHATEVER) the fact is, is that besides an OOC schedule in November and December (when UConn teams are usually still very raw) there are barely any chances to sneak top 25 wins in or play top 25 talent unless Cincy is having a great year. It makes it THAT much harder for us to make a case to be in the tourney when were having a so so year, and it makes us that much less appealing to the country. It sucks and it sucks to be in this situation, but I have always, always stuck by the mantra that UConn needs to save basketball first, before considering any other sport. Soon enough- I think were going to see (if were not already based on this thread) that UConn basketball needs saving. [/QUOTE]
