Message: [QUOTE="StunningSteve, post: 2634669, member: 7895"] They weren’t saying that in 2014. Fact is, the conference would be very stout this year if Memphis and UConn were firing on all cylinders. Memphis is about to address that and so is UConn. Both UCF and SMU would have been dancing if they had all their guys as well. It could have easily been a 5 bid league (judging by OOC records) without the Huskies and Tigers contributing to that. It may surprise you to know that there are talking heads that want to craft a narrative that UConn is dead. Guys like Adam Zagoria and Pete Thamel. Weaving that narrative helps the schools that they care about. A strong alternative brand takes recruits away. They are fighting to make Syracuse better, or St Johns... [/QUOTE]
