I don't trust Val and don't think she has UConn's best interest at heart.
She doesn’t. She has the best interest of the conference at heart, as she should. No doubt, she values us as a member.
I can say that I love the Big East and would absolutely love to see it expand back into a viable football conference. I still see the possibility that it happens. Syracuse, BC, UConn, Wake, Duke etc could possibly find themselves in a situation where a reconstituted Big East makes sense. At the same time, the Catholics could see that without football, they will be relegated to a lower tier.
All of that said, I’m all in on the B12 if they come calling. Basketball will be great (I prefer the BE for basketball, but we can’t have it all) and football will immediately improve.
