UConn has a football team?

Apparently not

 

[Flywheel]

Is football even a net revenue sport for them? They're 110% hoops.

 

[zippyGT]

If you're a UConn player and already used a redshirt, would this qualify for a 6th year of eligibility? If not, are players free to transfer with immediate eligibility?

 

[Diseqc]

Nah. Both my girls went to UMD. Students go for the first half to get their loyalty points towards basketball tickets then leave at half time.

 

[DeepSnap]

Do they just drop football and become a basketball focused Big East program?

It has been done before... Villanova dropped football in 1981 (after NFL HoFer Howie Long finished) only to bring it back in 1984.

This is the most press for UConn football they've ever had. Their whole program is on life support. Stupid pro sports style decision to expand your program while moving your stadium 40 miles from campus to a polluted field in a blue collar burb that's close to nothing.

There is a Bass Pro Shop next door.

Used to be a Cabela’s, which was way cooler.

Bass Pro really sucks for Kayak gear.
