Message: [QUOTE="Cusefan95, post: 5141253, member: 173"] Football is driving the conference realignment bus - if you don’t have it, eventually you will be left on the curb. That is the reason UConn has continued to fund a team with debt - because they needed to in order to have any hope of being at the big boy table when the music stops. The problem is even if they go to a conference with more money, they need it now to pay down debt - and as important as NIL is, schools still need to have a bare minimum of facilities and resources to attract football recruits - and UConn doesn’t have that and will never be able to afford it. I see many people have their panties in a bunch - but it’s partly driven by a total misread of the situation. This is a pairing of a desperate conference with a desperate school which is irrelevant in the big picture and impacts us in absolutely no relevant way. I don’t care. At all. [/QUOTE]
