Did UConn really cancel due to Covid or

to avoid the headache of trying to miraculously come up with a 10 game schedule for their crappy football team?

Covid is an excuse for many things these days.

The reality lays between the two, I believe.

They are in a tough spot, as you're right, they have no one to play. So they can't cobble together a schedule.

However, unlike ND, they also have no incentive to cobble one together, as they rely on ticket revenue to fund their athletic program, as they don't have a big TV contract. Due to COVID, it's likely there won't be ticket revenue (or not enough to offset the expense), so even if they got a schedule together, it doesn't equal revenue.

So all that taken together, yes, it's because they can't schedule games. But it's also because there's no point to them scheduling games, as it would actually put them even further underwater.

Yep they already put all their fortunes into basketball by moving back to the Big East from the American. Clemson should get them off the schedule next year before they leave us high and dry at the last minute.

I am fairly sure their seven boosters paid the University to cancel the season. This was the only way to avoid a 10 loss season with Randy Edsall.

Sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.
