I actually havre a friend from high school that went there. When he said he was going there not one of my friends even thought it was a real school. Proof that they would take anyone back in the late 80s. :)

Well, I see it was all women until 1969 and still almost 60% today..so in late 80's your friend must have known the scoop and went for the favorable ratios. 😆
 
The UConn men's basketball team has sparked controversy by maintaining a No. 25 ranking in the AP Top 25 poll after losing three consecutive games to unranked teams at the Maui Invitational. Critics argue that UConn's ranking might be more reflective of its historical prestige rather than its current form, especially when compared to other teams' ranking adjustments. The debate intensifies as some fans and analysts label the ranking as 'ludicrous' and 'fraudulent', questioning the integrity of the ranking system in college basketball. This situation has not only highlighted UConn's unexpected slide but also brought into focus the criteria used for ranking teams, with UConn's case serving as a prime example of how past glory might influence current standings.
