UConn headed back to the BigEast

[GoldRusher]

UConn on the verge of joining the Big East, football likely in need of a landing spot outside AAC


Football to the MAC?

Sounds like UConn wants to keep their football in the AAC... Mike our Commish who has hugged me a few times is probably stupid enough to allow this.

We don't want UConn without their basketball. It's the only reason they are in the AAC.

So who replaces UConn in the AAC?

But at least New Jersey produces some talent.

With a Big East move expected, UConn will not be welcome in AAC as football-only member

True, but most go PSU or tOSU (at least the elites). WVU has a few Jersey kids on the roster, and adding more w/ the new staff. Plus, the B1G was after that TV market. They apparently didn't research much, as no one really watches RU. I miss playing them, and the trips there were great though.

I wouldn't mind adding Texas or tOS . Both remind me a lot of UCF and are in states with AAC member .
