First of all, I’m sorry you’re so paranoid as to think there was some kind of sinister point - some kind of way to try and detract from UConn. You should go back to bed for a couple more hours.

The point is that simply UConn, ESPN and The Big East grew up together and it all worked to help each institution. That’s a fact. To me, it’s interesting. It’s also interesting how Connecticut became UCONN in the past couple of decades - and in this era of marketing and image, I wonder how important that has been.

Sometimes the simple things make a huge difference. I remember when Clemson changed their logo to the simple Tiger Paw. Their athletic program took off. I just find it interesting. If you don’t, sorry…..you miss part of the richness of these things.

I do find it funny that Mike and Mike, at ESPN, can’t connect these dots. Then again, they miss a lot of dots.

All for asking you what your point was? Had you made your point clear in your initial post, you wouldn’t get these types of posts in return.

Consider it constructive feedback on your writing skills (apparently I wasnt the only one to fail to see your point).

Have a nice day, sir.
