Connecticut senator issues blunt warning to UConn amid Big 12 rumors [View all]
In what would be one of the most shocking conference realignment moves yet, the Connecticut Huskies have reportedly been in conversations about joining the Big 12 conference in all sports. One of the highest profile UConn fans is not thrilled with the potential move.
Connecticut Senator Chris Murphy quote tweeted an article detailing UConn potentially joining the Big 12, and shared his opinions on X, formerly known as Twitter.
“I’ve always believed UConn should stay in the Big East,” Murphy wrote. “Our athletes and fans have a great regional conference that clearly works for our highest profile sport, basketball. Chasing football relevance is a mistake. We will get burned.”
These are strong words from Murphy, who represents Connecticut in the United States Senate and graduated from the University of Connecticut School of Law.
