Thoughts on the state of the program

That said, the AAC has proven to be a good all-sports league (football, basketball, and baseball) and trending up.

Fully agree with Baseball/Softball and football - in UConn's case
But a horror for basketball (both men and women) and soccer
Good thing there isn't an AAC for field hockey and ice hockey

So far, "the horror" for AAC basketball has been UConn and Memphis.

That's the caveat.

With a historically good UConn and Memphis last year, those 2, 4, and 6, seeds (for UC, WSU, and UH), have a ton more support.

And that's during a season in which SMU and UCF looked primed for NCAA runs as well before injuries decimated their rosters.

Just like Dan Hurley has been a game changer for UConn, he gives a lot more support to the conference as well.

UConn's "job" in the conference is to pull its weight in basketball. Just like Kansas has done in the Big 12 (while riding the backs of Oklahoma and Texas). Just like UNC does in the ACC, while Clemson and FSU pull the football weight. That's just how its supposed to work in a conference.
