Message: [QUOTE="A10 fan, post: 2037118, member: 3154"] Hey, I'm not one who really thinks the UConn brand is fading, but I see that all the time on this board. You trash those Midwest teams, but if you think they're trash, why would you want to be in a league where with the exception of Villanova, they are the power teams? Personally, my opinion is that eventually, the P5 schools will make a move to go their own way, or at the very least, set things up where it will be very difficult for non P5 schools to compete. Before this happens, there will be one more round of changes in the P5. UConn needs to set itself up to be included in these changes. That won't happen if they kick football to the curb. The idea that the AAC would allow UConn to be a football only member strikes me as a pipe dream. If Cincy can maintain their basketball status while in the purgatory of the AAC, there is no reason why a superior program like UConn can't. The nightmare scenario would be for UConn to kick football away, and 6-7 years from now, see Cincy admitted to the big boys club without them. [/QUOTE]
