RING THE BELL, WE HAVE A WINNER WINNER CHICKEN DINNER!!! The AAC had nothing to do with UCONN failing. No matter how some message boarders try to paint it, nobody else at any level of the game was running their type of "debt" 40 effing million a year and they were still terrible on top of that. UCONN was a conference made program,and as long as they were comfortably in the fold,,,,they were ok. They got exposed for having a stupid arrogant administration, and fans that never realized that they were blessed to have had a couple of great coaches (Calhoun/Geno) and a great run. There's a reason that they were continually passed over and it had not a dang thing to do with the American. GOODLUCK to them and the NBE. However after all of the made up $#!+ about Fox giving everyone in the NBE a 2mil raise for CUSA ratings because of the nostalgia of getting UCONN back, and UCONN 2 million dollar paychecks for literally one of the worst fbs programs in history and the such,,,,and the fact that wbb means nothing to anyone other than them. I'll just say that the American says thanks for the 10 million dollars + exit fees, and extra cut of their 7 million dollar per year tv bucks, and 20 million dollars+ cfp money, and bowl money and NCAA credit monies. Thanks NBE and you to UCONN LOLOL.
