And do what with Football?

UConn has repeatedly said its not getting out of the D-IA Football business. Would staying in the Big East and remaining indy in Football be a better option (in UConn's mind, anyway) than joining up with the ACC left-behinds?

Not saying you're right or you're wrong, just asking the question

FWIW, I considered that when I made my post. I think they'd rather keep football independent and remain in the Big East than join the rump ACC, if that rump ACC was not a power conference, which I do not think it would be.

The hypothetical membership lineup PeteTheChop presented — even if not "power" in football — would definitely be power in hoops. And it would offer UConn football a home and UConn baseball a much better league than the BE. As such, UConn would, at the least, have to consider the invitation.

I agree they would give it strong consideration. We just disagree about what the results of those deliberations would be.

But I don't think we ever to have to worry about this, LOL.
