agreed, Men's B-ball too. to think a few years ago they were the national champs now they don't get the luxury of telling recruits they get to play in a premiere conference.
UConn men got a top 10 recruiting class in bball coming in next year and the women have still been pulling in the #1 class since the AAC's formation. Right now the biggest reason they need to get out is because of the revenue streams, the power 5 conference TV deals are killing the group of 5's(which the AAC is apart of). But again, UConn can't just up and move to a conference, they gotta be positioned well(aka the football program needs to level up) for the next round of expansion.

the women dont have to worry about that tho.

the elite teams play each other on the reg. in women's ball. plus, uconn is the place to be.

UConn has no business being in the AAC. They should move to the ACC for Women's BB only. But Geno doesn't want that.


can they do that?

It doesn't matter what conference they play in, the results are usually the same. The load up on non-conference games against the top teams to begin the season and still blow teams out. Most teams are afraid to play them because they don't want an early L. South Carolina is the only team not afraid to play them this late in the season and they agreed for two more games during the next two season.

They could play every top 25 teams and they would still be undefeated.
