UCONN has a huge presence in New York. It would have made more sense for

That's fine, but they aren't in the NYC market. They are in the Hartford market.

Not real talk. I truly doubt UCONN makes much of a dent in NYC.

UConn only moves the needle weakly in CT itself

they do move the needle in NYC for BB...which is more important in NYC than FB

Rutgers doesn't make much of a dent in NYC either.

I agree, but they are actually IN the NYC market. That makes a difference.

UConn doesn't have a huge following anywhere. They can't even draw 25K people

UConn does not have a "huge" presence in NYC. That's laughable.

In my experience, people in CT are more NFL fans than anything else

but is it enough to get a channel on Tier 1 in the Tri-state area?

Good question. I have no idea

They did play Army in Yankee Stadium in 2014 for whatever that's worth.
