With apologies to Michaelsco in basketball, which of course is the Power Five football leagues and the Big East being the 6th. And when the old Big East broke up in essentially split ways with the football schools and basketball schools, the basketball schools continued on and carried the Big East name and Yukon, because it was a program that played Division One, A or FBS football. They stuck around with the football schools in what became the American Athletic Conference

Now this is a question that I have heard posed, interestingly enough, of another school that won this college sports season, although I'm talking about a different sport. So of course, the women's championship was won by LSU. And that's a question that has been put forth about LSU football

And then you bring in a guy like Joe burrow to just kind of quarterback the team. They had quite the roster. And Connecticut, it's not done with kids from hartford here. I mean, this is getting kids from all over the world to come play and then be able to coach them. And you're right, there is your second fiddle to the women's program, for sure

They haven't even won a Rose Bowl since the 60s, let alone a national championship. Haven't even come close. And the success they had in the 30s, well, that's 90 years ago now. So I don't know how relevant that is to today. I hope Indiana is not going down that road, but they certainly seem to be. But if you look at Duke, duke really didn't get to the national title game before 1986. And not that I know of anyways
