Message: [QUOTE="nashusky109, post: 3192346, member: 7437"] Everyone who doesn’t like the move keeps saying how this doesn’t do anything for UConn men’s basketball but what did staying in the AAC do for UConn in the long run? Yes football is up in the air but that has nothing to do with the basketball team. What benefits do y’all AAC loyalist see by staying in the conference? More travel, more opponents nobody gives a damn about, empty stadiums and far less recognition nationally? Instead of saying the negatives on the move to the NBE let’s hear some positives if we stayed in the AAC? Honestly can’t think of too many. Maybe a little more money? (which hopefully a new SNY contract can help offset). We haven’t been able to recruit the NE region successfully or for that matter any region successfully. Not trying to take shots at anyone but can anyone actually give me positives about staying in the AAC? I see far more benefits for the b-ball program with this move home. [/QUOTE]
