i never attended Uconn. Grew up in CT, became a fan in the mid 80's when I was in high school.
Started following football shortly after they made the jump to D1A. Up to that point , was never a big fan of college football. Have been a seaso ticket holder past three seasons and now my kids all have and wear Uconn gear. A school I never went to in a state I no longer reside in.
For almost the past 10 years everything Uconn has had the dual pressure of not just winning, but also wondering the impact on CR.
it's gotten to the point where it seems like Uconns P5 aspirations rest on the success and failure of every play.
I get the issue isn't going away, and I doubt I'll drop my daily habit of checking the BY daily.
But maybe if there truly is a 'quiet period', we as Uconn fans can get back to following the success of the Huskies, help to grow the fan base, and just enjoy the on field success without the added pressure of CR.
I feel some relief that it's quiet right now.
