    What was Jim B. talking about re Andy Katz?

  3. Frankie/Stamford says:

    Dom, I’m very concerned about the reported package deal with NBC Sports. I think we are in very bad situation. Losing anywhere between 2 to 11 million a year is totally unacceptable. Also the collateral damage to our athletics in recruiting and perception will be devastating. I believe our super star AD and school President better come up with some positive answers and solutions before our basketball and football programs arrive DOA.

      Where are we losing $11M a year? Our contract currently gives us $3M a year, far below the real conferences. The new contract is suppose to be under $2M year.

      Way to go UCONN administration!!!

    Hip Hop Hood, I believe the original offer to the Big East from ESPN that was turned down would have averaged at least 13M for each school.

    • Hip Hop Hood says:

      Thanks for the clarification.

      Every single one of the idiots who turned down the original contract needs to be fired!!!!!

  5. Frankie/Stamford says:

    Hip Hop Hood, I went back to the archives for the original offer from espn and each school that is full-time for D1 football and basketball would have received 13.8 million and the basketball only schools 2.4-2.5 million. All I know now is that we are in a mess with this lousy new big east. Warde and Herbst better figure out something quick before both programs become marginalized. Can’t wait to see UConn/SMU rather than UConn/Syracuse!!
