    ISU reaches out to the Big East

    You seriously need to get some clue what you are talking about. Frankly, UL AD Jurich just said publicly he has no idea what ACC sees in Pitt. Pitt basketball vs. UCONN basketball? It is lile comparing Jr high school to a pro team as far as accomplishments. Pitt never even been to a final...

    ISU reaches out to the Big East

    Simply not true. B1G took Nebraska knowing they would be out of AAU. AAU would not be part of the issue. Even so, UCONN will probably get into AAU soon enough. State of CT just committed $1B in medical research dollars into UCONN couple of months ago. Academically, we are ranked #58 in US...

    ISU reaches out to the Big East

    Or if UCONN and RU go to the B1G since both would fit there academically. Who knows at this point? We just have to do what's the best for all of us now with the info we got today. One thing the new conference can do is increase the exit fee to $25M or something. It is either you are in or...

    ISU reaches out to the Big East

    There is no chance ACC would take RU over UCONN if they are to go to 16. I still don't get why ACC would take Pitt over UCONN so anything is possible at this point. Frankly, I don't even care for this realignment crap anymore. I am just so tired of it. I just hope it is over soon so we can...

    UCONN released statement on the mascot accident

    I am sure UCONN would release a statement full of reference to ISU without confirming the story. Did you read the part mascot himself confirmed the story in the police interview?

    ISU reaches out to the Big East

    It looks like D-Day is tomorrow when OU and OSU make their intentions public. I am sure Texas will follow with their intentions. If I have to guess, I am certain those guys are gone from the B12. OU/OSU to the PAC-12 along with Texas/TTU. It is time to pick up the pieces. B12 and BE...

    UCONN released statement on the mascot accident

    http://deadspin.com/5841431/ Summary: It was an accident guys. The poor kid tripped over stairs and fell down. No one at UCONN attacked him like some people claimed here. BTW, congrats on the late comeback win. Your team held on while we are still looking for a QB. Since we will...

    ***Official ISU @ UConn Gameday Thread***

    There is a reason why UCONN sent 3 players to the NFL from our secondary last 3 years.

    ***Official ISU @ UConn Gameday Thread***

    UCONN fan here. This game makes me nervous for various reasons. I watched IOWA vs. ISU game last week. Your QB is very good. Your defense is pretty decent too. I think if we can bring some kind of passing game to the table, we got a chance to win. UCONN defense is very good. We will put a...

    UCONN Football Stadium - Rentschler Stadium

    UCONN fan here. I am really looking forward to tonight's game. There are some misconceptions about our stadium. It currently seats 40K but it was designed to easily expand to 55K. All the expansion are already built in so it is just matter of money and ticket demand. As for beyond 55K, it...

    *****The Super, Mega, Huge Big 12 Expansion Thread*****

    Here is some ideas that some people put out about a B12/BE merger that might work. It won't leave anyone out. One idea is have ND and Texas park their non-FB sports in the new conference while go indy in football. This will make Texas happy so they can keep all of their money while still be...

    UCONN Game

    We could very be conference mates in a few weeks. Good luck to the Clones. I hope to see you guys in the BE. As an UCONN fan, I would definitely like to add more schools that are more compatible academically with the Huskies. This is also the main reason I prefer you guys over KSU but we will...

    Oklahoma Contemplating Leaving Big XII

    He is right. No BE school would consider the B12 with its current setup especially considering BE got a pot of gold waiting by Nov of 2012 in the new TV contract. Texas got a huge ego and they want to run the conference. Schools with options like Nebraska, OU and A&M know that it won't work...

    Oklahoma Contemplating Leaving Big XII

    I am an UCONN fan and we will be playing you guys soon. The fact OU president just openly stated that they are looking means they already found a landing spot and ready to move. No president would make that kind of comment unless he is leaving the conference. With OU to the PAC-12...

    Big East mulls expansion (ESPN.com)

    Sorry I gonna have to disagee with this. While most BCS conferences have bottom feeders, there is no such thing in the BE. Top down BE is the most balanced football conference out there cause any team can win on any given week. If the SEC has that, media would be screaming how tough SEC is...
