How much potential does P4 UConn Football have?

With the potential Big 12 move, I've been reading alot of articles on Uconn. Yes they have been horrible but I wanted to get the board's take on their potential as a P4 member. Their fans turn out for big games and there really isn't any competition Sports-wise in Connecticut. There are a ton of good high school players in the region but most go to the Big 10. If they poured NIL money into the program and upgraded facilities, what is their ceiling? Would it be a mistake for the ACC to pass on them to go to the Big 12? ** Edited by Sunsetunderground at 8/28/2024, 5:40:06 PM

I once believed in the potential of UConn football. They proved me wrong.

Isn't the stadium a long way from campus? Miles away?

Their stadium is located on an old abandoned WWII airfield in East Hartford

Do you know if there is room on their campus to build a new stadium?

I don't believe so unless they are willing to demolish buildings or

Tearing down a football stadium to build a BB coliseum is very ACC...lol**

Exactly which has created a PR problem for UConn. Fair or not UConn is now
VTHokie2000 08/29/24 08:25 AM ET
Where will they build their next football stadium when they tear down...

Since the State of CT owns the current stadium, it is possible the state
