A shoestring budget refers to what one spends, not what one takes in.Yes I do but i mean by shoestring we don't a lot of money from a conference. Yes our budget is based on our States wealth and commitment from the Governor. But would it be fair to suggest these schools in P5 have large budgets as well in addition to the conference money?
So good catch on your part but my statement still stands regardless of wordage.
This last iteration sure, but for so many others we have been.And therein is the problem. UConn was never a front-runner, so it wasn't dropped at the 11th hour.
Lol do you believe that we are not currently being considered by the ACC because they felt jilted by the big 12 's interest in us? If so, you've been watching too many teen dramas.Do I get more angry at our AD for taking the bait on Big 12 and acting like something was going to happen while ignoring ACC possibility, this now having SMU????? possibly join the conference.

What’s funny is that the Die Hard Big East UConn Fans think that that it’s some oasis and will never be impacted.
They are in for a rude awakening.
SMU is not getting a look because of who they but where they are. If the ACC adds SMU, the ACC Network will be in Texas. That is worth tens of millions of dollars.Do I get more angry at our AD for taking the bait on Big 12 and acting like something was going to happen while ignoring ACC possibility, this now having SMU????? possibly join the conference.

A lot of wrong to unpack here.lol. You’re so mad.
NCAABB contract is locked through 2032. Nine years. If there’s a “reckoning” then, either the Big East is involved or I won’t care so whatever, man. Gonna try and enjoy this national championship we literally just won instead of crying that TCU doesn’t like us.
Have fun at your little cult meetings where you don’t UNDERSTAND why we just CANT GET IN as if there was actually anything that could have been done to change this in the last 50 years (there was not).
Yep, I'm going to enjoy them trying to go back to back. The doom and gloom here is insane. We just won another basketball title and have accomplished what 99% of fanbases never get to experience. Zoo doesn't even watch basketball, it's weird.lol. You’re so mad.

Why would ACC take that? Like, that is whoring yourself out. Then, eventually, after used up, you are stuck with them.If SMU is offering to go in for ZERO media payout then I can’t see how anyone is mad at UConn for not doing that, because that’s pointless.
Please explainTulane, that school was the reason the original big east left. The markets for ACC carriage is a silly, declining area of revenue that is not a growth area. Linear TV is in secular decline. Any move, as a business, by the ACC to add a team for carriage is foolish. That diminishes over time.
Well, I mean ESPN could've gotten us in the club at any decision point along the way. Still can, absolutely at anytime. It is entirely up to them.lol. You’re so mad.

This has been a constant problem. We keep being used to help float smaller conferences. We came cheap in the American, so we left. Now, Fox has us cheap and as a result, we can’t get into the B12. The ACC is the only conference we can control our own destiny with. Our state government needs to be pressuring ESPN relentlessly.Well, I mean ESPN could've gotten us in the club at any decision point along the way. Still can, absolutely at anytime.

Is it still full of SU alums with nothing to cheer about except our conference issues?We need ESPN to cease to exist.

This. Exactly. When and if that reckoning comes nothing will look remotely the same and at that point there is no point worrying about it. because 300 other schools will be left in dust too.
LOL at "cult meeting" that's exactly what the CR board here has been for last 11 years. Excellent
