Who runs the AAC? I'm pretty ignorant to all of this stuff but it almost seems like they want UConn to try to leave. If there was even the slightest effort to improve the conference and make it more desirable for the better teams, I think UConn wouldn't mind staying and building it up. But I just have to think any team worth anything in this conference has to want out. Why hasn't there really been any effort to boost the bottom of the barrel from pulling everyone else down?

There has been an effort. For example, Houston and South Florida brought in new coaches this year. It just hasn't worked.

What about scheduling better competition?

ummm, what dollars are you talking about? you are aware that there is a ceiling for basketball dollars, right?

Doesnt matter that b-ball is tiny relative to f-ball. Do you like more dollars or less dollars? Do you think the NBE would like to have the most desirable arrangement of teams to stay relevant vs the p5 and all their football $? I'm pretty sure a rational mind answers yes to both questions, meaning we should be attractive if not a game changer to the NBE.

By the way, UMass would lick the yellow line down the middle of the highway from Amherst to Provdence to get into the AAC, yet some dopes here want to follow their model.

I don't want to play in the A-10, no. Seems like it's not really the same thing.
