The AAC is good for WCBB.  Yes, it is good for the totality of women's college basketball.

"Why is that so?" you ask.  Because...

1. The meagre competition most of the conference offers UConn leads GA & Co.
    to invite other top teams to schedule UConn, thus providing

2. topnotch, often competitive games among the best teams, attracting fan interest above and beyond most conference—AAC and other—schedules, and

3. revealing which coaches usually do (McGraw, Staley, Van derVeer, Walz,) and often don't (Mulkey) choose to engage with the best available competition.

Is the AAC good for UConn?  If you haven't yet figured out the answer to that one,
perhaps you advocate a much higher rim, unlimited fouls, and a square ball.

Also, in the spirit of something like mercy killing, it gives a few of the more rabid Lady Vols fans something to talk about on their glorious (!) board when they grow tired of Holly hagiography and fahr Holly screaming matches.
