Message: [QUOTE="sutomcat, post: 3680181, member: 27"] UConn chose to not play football in 2020 because they couldn’t afford to, and because there was almost no negative impact to the program shutting down for a year. They were already the worst program in the country by a large margin. Things couldn’t really get any worse. Why not not play and only lose 5 million instead of trying to play and losing 10 million? There was absolutely nothing altruistic in their decision. They had no choice. No fans. No revenue coming in. No league members to help bail them out. This and the decision to deemphasize football to try and save their troubled basketball programs were the only good decisions the UConn athletic department has made in the past 10 years. The NY Times has reached a new low. How sad. [/QUOTE]
