Pitino is 60
Ooops. Good point then. I think I got his confused with Boeheim's age. Isn't it JB who is 2 years younger than Calhoun?

Doesn't ZLS work for ESPN? We all are connected.
We're going "back, back, back..."?I just finished my conversation with ESPN. Took a while, because they made me renew my "insider" subscription (boy, has that thing paid for itself).
Once I renewed my insider subscription, they explained everything to me.
The only problem is, I'm not allowed to say/post anything.
I will give you one guys one hint as to what's going on: Berman
Anyone listen to the Tim Brando show today? Apparently Aresco was on, and almost said UConn was gone. This was according to a post on the main Rivals board by a Memphis fan. Anyone hear it?

More expansion is coming. BC, Georgia Tech could be next in Big Ten plan. ACC needs to go to 16 now. [URL='http://ajerseyguy.com[/quote']http://ajerseyguy.com[/URL]

Here is the Aresco interview
http://www.yahoosportsradio.com/college-basketball/mike-aresco-rebuilding-the-big-east-38944/
Two little snippets that may be Freudian slips. He initially says "teams" leaving and then corrected to team. Then in a discussion of regional rivalries he mentioned Temple and then hemmed a hawed and finally said UConn but without much confidence. You can judge for yourself. I think it is a reach to read to much into his statements. At a minimum you hear Aresco's sales pitch to the TV networks.
I went to high school with Terzi's wife, therefore, I now have his ESPN connections. Didn't he work for about a week at channel 30?
I don't think the teams slip-up is a huge deal. I think he was originally referring to replacing all the teams that have left over the last 15 months or so.
But I think you're right about that second one. He starts talking about all the new rivalries and says, "You have Temple, and, well, at this point, Connecticut".
That is a great sign, IMO.
Yes! I love guessing games!
1) Berman went to Brown University which is located in Providence, RI, home of the Big East headquarters = we're staying in the NNNNNBE
2) Berman is employed by ESPN, a network that we can all agree are aiding the rise of the ACC and fall of the Big East = we're going to the ACC
3) Berman is a Buffalo BILLs backer, and the B1G can offer the most dolla dolla bills = we're going to the B1G
4) Berman, or "Boomer", often states that "nobody circles the wagons like"...the wagon totin' Oklahoma "Boomer" Sooners??? = we're going to the Big 12
5) Berman's alter ego "The Swami" sounds like a mosh between the words "swim", "sushi" and "warm"...all things that I personally associate with the Pacific coast = we're going to the Pac12.
Berman is one letter away from "beer man".
when I think of "beer" and "man" I think of football.
when I think of college football, I think SEC.
UConn is going to the SEC.
Yes, but they have almost zero influence in realignment (relative to TV at least).
I agree that UL is probably a more favored pick for bowl games, is a bowl person going to tell any ACC team, "we won't take an ACC team if you take UConn over UL." I doubt it, highly.

The Notre Dame president should shut the **** up already.
We're going "back, back, back..."?
Or "we could...go...all...the...way"?

Notre Dame president: "We're really happy in the ACC. But I am concerned about continual instability of this conference situation."
I am continually amused by the schools that are upset about the instability they helped create.
The thing is, in their hearts Domers think they have nothing to do with any of this. "Well nobody made these leagues give us a special deal." UGH SHUT UP
