UConn is 0-2 for the first time in 50 years, and they have been ranked for only 26 of the past 82 weeks. That's 31% of the time. That right there is proof of the effect of being dropped down from the Big East to the American. The AAC (and the argument can be made for ESPN too) is crippling UConn athletics with each passing day and season. The longer they are there, the more prestige they lose. The question becomes when, if ever, does UConn realize its mistake and move on from it? Or do they continue to spend recklessly and foolishly in attempt to buy their way back into the power conferences?

and I wonder if that recruit is having second thoughts seeing his future team is struggling to get a win in November.
