Conference Realignment: UConn, Rutgers Finding ACC Favor As Navy Nears Big East

The Connecticut Huskies and Rutgers Scarlet Knights want to join the ACC, and the Navy Midshipmen might join the ACC. You knew that, but here's a sourced report from the Baltimore Sun on both potential moves that adds detail to both stories. Please meet me in the next paragraph so we can talk about some things.

Nationwide college conference realignment didn't really hit me until reports emerged of Navy football joining a conference. They've been independent for 120 years, likely longer than your school has even had a football program. That's longer than Notre Dame's been independent. Even Army joined a conference for a while. Kinda bums me out to see Navy have to give that up and join a basketball conference. The idea of Navy joining a conference makes me shake my head every time I think about it.

Thanks for listening.

Check back often for conference realignment news, because it pretty much never stops happening.
