Obviously the money would be more. But uconn is awful and has been awful.. they need to try for someone better than Rob. Possibly bottom 5 of all FBS jobs. No conference, bad facilities, stadium 25 miles from campus. Uconn and Umass belong in the caa for football Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mat1992 2,231 Report post Posted September 7, 2021 Don't think anybody save for a young assistant is going to take that job. Who knows where they will be in three years? Five years? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ghost of andy7171 45 Report post Posted September 7, 2021 I can't see Rob leaving for UConn. UConn might drop football outright, again, instead of moving back down to FCS. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kind of agree here, be like Villanova, good in the Big East and drop down to the CAA for football. Seems like an all or nothing type of endeavor for them though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RundaPower 153 Report post Posted September 8, 2021 They won’t be moving down. Too much tax payer money invested into the stadium and associated facilities. You have a 40,000 seat /$100 million dollar stadium that has to be occupied. UConn will sit and wait for the realignment to take place. $ will come from the Big East until a new home is found.
