[HooperScooper]

UConn picked to finish 5th. Seems fair. Is this finally the year UConn outperforms their pre-season projection in the AAC?

It's farewell to the AAC for UConn after this season. Twenty years from now, what are people going to say about the Huskies' seven-season association with the American?

Gasaway: In 20 years, people will say, "UConn used to be in the American?"

Lol.

Lol.

In 20 years I will be 93. My hope is to forget the AAC years and recall my 8, yes 8 , final four trips and our 7 Natl Championships.

Lazy. More like, "Thanks to UConn, the AAC has one title in Men's Basketball.

We are only going to go win 3 more championships????

 

[UconnFanNVa]

IN 20 years people will say, Uconn is the ONLY team to win an NCAA championship from the AAC.

It was like those few years that Andy Petitte left the Yankees for the Astros. Wasn't right. Felt back to normal when he came back.

We have been in the AAC for only 7 years? It seems like 20. 20 long years.

 

[Scrutiner]

In 20 years people will say "there used to be a league called the American".

 

[UconnU]

In 20 years people will still say “The American conference? Never heard of it.”

 

[ucawn]

5th is fair, this team has a very high ceiling though. Ceiling: 3 Floor: 7

 

[Fishy]

This.

This thing ain’t making it 20 years.

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

I’d love nothing more than to go in there and pummel them.

 

[QuickDraw]

I think we can finish anywhere from 6th-2nd, there are a lot of factors including team health, frosh performance & growth & how other teams fare. Memphis is young but supremely talented, Cincy has a depleted team even with Cumberland & a new coach, & Houston will be solid but lacks true top shelf talent. I think we have a solid shot at a 3rd place finish but we will have to play well & stay healthy

 

[gtcam]

I can see UConn gelling and winning the conference
I can see UConn experiencing some growing pains and finishing 5th or 6th
Another year of going into a season with excitement but trepidation also
I think UConn is 1-2 years away from saying - we are definite league title and national contenders

Actually the AAC is the original Big East who sold that name to C7 in exchange for $70,000,000.00 and we we a founding member Of the original.
So this is the first time UConn actually changed conferences since the late 1977-78.
