It can definitely be any of 1-3, because even if it's completely true UConn has to deny it at this stage.

From a basketball standpoint, adding UCONN and going to 20 conference games to keep the round robin is an absolute no brainer right?

Sign me up for UCONN at the Cintas every season. I think Rick hit the nail on the head on the pod -- Xavier is really good at scheduling, but that's despite being in a middle ground where no true blue bloods will schedule home and homes and Xavier won't be bought for those games. Extra conference games, especially against UCONN, make life easier. I'm sure Mario could work wonders with:
3 exempt event games
UC
Wake
3/4 buy games
1/2 home/home with a P5 team

Joining the Big East and going independent in football would cost them about $4 million a year in revenue. Joining the MAC in football would mean having to play four MAC schools every year in men's and women's basketball as a condition of being an affiliate member, and it would mean walking away from just under $3 million a year in revenue.
I don't think they'd even consider joining the Big East unless they can remain an affiliate football member in the AAC, and not have to give up any revenue sharing. I also don't see the AAC agreeing to that. I mean, as great as UConn football is, I could still see the AAC not wanting to bend over backwards to accomodate them."You can't fix stupid." Ron White
