Message: [QUOTE="Hans Sprungfeld, post: 3258320, member: 181"] After UConn's trajectory since 2014, any sane, rebuilding coach would walk before running. Aided by historical reputation & success, UConn & Memphis were in the best position to attract recruits above the AAC norm. And yes, the conference is trending upward, in alignment with football's primacy. But any claim that there was/is "no AAC stigma" (twice in a reprise post whose successor got shouted down) is no less than an overreach. And any denial that UConn was not positioned for success in the AAC (and amply proved it) can't be taken seriously. It's your right to align with an unsupportable position, but it really does beg the question, "Why?" [/QUOTE]
