Message: [QUOTE="Dooley, post: 3053768, member: 2920"] Completely agree. It's not P5 money but it does help put a sizable dent in AAC school subsidies. Not to mention, the exposure being on the ESPN platform (with streaming) is very good for the league. The AAC is actually a very good league. If this is our forever home, we could do much worse. The top 3-4 AAC football finishers can always go toe-to-toe with 99% of the P5 (Alabama/Clemson exception...but nobody in the P5 can play with those 2 either). Over time, the bottom dwellers like us will (should!) come up some with an injection of more money and ESPN exposure. And I've said this many times before, the long term hoops projection of the AAC is actually much higher than the long term future of the Big East. Larger markets, bigger footprint and far more exposure playing on ESPN vs FOX. (Some) UConn fans just have to get off their high horses and become part of the solution instead of being part of the problem! [/QUOTE]
