Connecticut desperately wants to flee the new incarnation of the Big East -- or Atlantic 12 -- Conference. The Huskies have been unable to find a conference dance partner in recent years. The school is resigned to its fate, but it's still available for anyone interested.

“We feel settled in the new league, we’re moving forward, but if at some time someone wants to reach out to us, we’ll have that conversation,” Connecticut athletic director Warde Manuel told Harvey Araton of the New York Times.

freesportspicksdaily.com added, "Speculative translation: if the Southeastern Conference should seek to expand its footprint to the northeast, perhaps book a couple of its gridiron Goliaths into MetLife stadium, Manuel and Connecticut would not play hard to get," Araton added. "If the Big 12 should raid the A.C.C. -- as some have speculated it might -- then he would keep a night light in the window to help the A.C.C. folks locate him in countrified Storrs."

An ACC raid by the Big Ten conference would serve the same purpose. Either way, UConn is clearly in reactionary mode without any options at the moment.
