OT: UConn to Big 12 ?

[50 yd line RR]

The decision by the Big 12 presidents not to take UConn makes so much sense. I'm shocked the idea got this far. Here's UConn's admission that the Big 12 rejected it: https://uconn.edu/public-notification/big-12-records/#

Why did Susan Herbst say “they support the AAC”?
Aren’t they in the Big East now?

By your logic, you are smart because you're better at math than kindergartners...got it !

You see, that's the problem with being an apologist. You can't understand Schiano was hired to compete in the Big10, which he's clearly failing at. Is it good enough for you that we would be undefeated against DIII teams ? Maybe even give him a raise and extension ?

He was not hired to hypothetically field a better team than others in a different & weaker conference (or Independent, in UConn's case) that he's not in, nor was Mora hired to hypothetically make UConn to better than teams in the Big10.

Should we not have fired Ash because we were always much better than Bethune-Cookman and Eastern Illinois A & M ?

Get a clue, man. And recognize the football team is non-competitive in the conference. That's not a good thing.

You really have a negative attitude. I'm not an apologist for Schiano and only want RU to win. However, I don't spend my days lamenting the fact that he hasn't gotten it done and is doomed forever. Even if we made a mistake, we aren't canning a guy this early into his return with such a long contract. You need to get over yourself and go find a hobby until this has run its course because you're absolute misery when you post on these boards.

First thing I thought of too when seeing that tweet.

But after thinking about it, I came to this conclusion too.

And the Pac12?

This is from 2016…not from their latest bid

The links are from 2016…ythese are not recent and have nothing to do with the current big 12 expansion

Shocker. "Insider sources" turn out to be wrong.

Like I said above, stick with mainstream CFB media for more reliable info.

Right. Message Board Geniuses it is.

oh! sorry!!

So UConn has been rejected by the B12 twice now. Maybe they should wait till 2036 when the ACC will be desperate to survive after mass defections following the sunset of the GOR.
