You can crap on the AAC all you want but what was the alternative for UConn? Not join the AAC? We'll see how that plays out in time.

I'll be very curious to see how the Big East and AAC schools look a decade from now.... financially.  The AAC still has football to sell to TV and the Big East still does not. Unless there is a new wave of conference re-alignment where a number of AAC schools get poached and the league folds that football is just going to get better and better and more appealing for TV. And UConn football will still be begging for table scraps every season when it comes to a possibility for a bowl game or a couple of decent P-5 matchups. Alabama ain't coming to E. Hartford and no one is going to donate a penny to put any kind of roof over the seats so that fans have some kind of protection from the elements in November and actually stay past halftime. Not as an independent. Notre Dame is a fluke living off past glory. BYU has an insolated fan base(what else is there to do big-time sports-wise in Utah?).
