Multiple Reports: Big East Open To Adding Connecticut For All Non-Football Sports

On Wednesday morning, FanRag Sports’ Jon Rothstein threw another log on the “CONNECTICUT TO THE BIG EAST!” fire with this report:

The Big East and UConn have had recent discussions about the Huskies joining the conference, multiple sources told FanRag Sports.

FanRag Sports reported last week that UConn had looked into joining the conference and one source confirmed on Wednesday that the Big East would take the Huskies in all sports.

The issue then for UConn would be to find a home for its football program, which wouldn’t be able to join the Big East because the doesn’t league’s participants do not have football.
