Re: UConn back to the Big East

I also think UConn will find that the BE in 2020 is very different from the BE in say 2010

Re: UConn back to the Big East

so some things we've learned since UConn's big announcement.

1) according to the Houston Chronicle the AACs ESPN deal will only be renegotiated if one of five schools leave the AAC: Cincy, Houston, UCF, USF, and Memphis...UConn leaving does not trigger renegotiation of the deal.

Another important ...

Re: From the brilliant mind of Steve Maz.. Penny Hardaway.. Hmm


Just saw Hardaway has now secured the #1 recruiting class for 2019 which by far is the most important job as a head coach these days. So, when we are looking for our next coach in two years I will be the first on the Camby train!


Penny is executing a very specific plan he's been working on for ...

Re: Candidates for 2017 UMass HC vacancy

An ACC school will give the job to a guy w no head coaching experience? Wow, that's one hell of a first HC job.

Hey, Kentucky lost! Fire Calipari!!! Send him back to UMass...

not only do I believe Umass will be in the Big Ten one day, I also believe Coach Cal will be back in his mid 60's to ...

Re: Calipari - UMass jersey retirement




Delusion is honestly believing that John Calipari didn't know what Rose was up to with his SAT. Delusion is honestly believing that Calipari didn't know what was going on with Camby. Delusion is giving Calipari a pass for leaving your school on probation. Moreover, we're not OK with taking ...

Re: Calipari - UMass jersey retirement

Cal brought Rose here, not the other way around...the HC is responsible for everything that goes on in the program under his watch...you boys can spin it all you like, the flaming bag of poo he left on our doorstep is all on him.

Moreover, Memphis has a title game in the 70s under Gene Bartow ...

Classless is leaving your team on probation, all while taking their recruits...we owe that dbag nothing, and he could only match what Gene Bartow achieved back in 1973...taking Memphis to the title game.

Re: Calipari - UMass jersey retirement

right now, the best Calipari would get from Memphis is a bunch of booing and middle fingers...I don't know if that relationship will ever be healed.

Re: UMass Football going Independent

The gigantic difference between Rutgers (and I agree, njumass08, that NJ looked like New England) and UMass is that Rutgers was and is playing in a major conference. That difference can't be emphasized enough, The only way UMass will ever attract significant fans to the football program is if the ...

They are still going to pillage your conference. Big 12 is looking to expand their TV coverage.

Re: UMass Football going Independent

I really don't care either way since I think the AAC is a crap conference.

OK, but last I looked UCF won the Fiesta Bowl...UConn won the mens title...UConn won the women's title...and ECU looks poised to grab the access bowl this season.

The AAC will have 12 teams next year, and I see no reason ...

Re:

The problem is more with what the AAC will look like when UMass is asked to join. Even if the conference isn't the same it will never be grouped with the P5 and the overwhleming likelihood is that the P5 will be the only economically feasible BCS conferences. UMass waited a decade too long to ...

Why does the MAC have to consider a 1AA transition? I've been scratching my head regarding the conference pecking order. After the BCS conferences, I see the Mountain West and American as the next tier. I consider the Sun Belt at the bottom (absorbed ...
