UConn has the most mens bball prestige, for lack of a better word, in the AAC. In that respect they kind of are the key. Their prescence gives the AAC a more high end feel at least in my opinion. If UConn leaves UC is probably next out the door and the rest of the teams are probably evaluating their options. Should UD jump to AAC and UConn leave, we'd be left in a conference with where we don't fit great, with bball resembling the A10. If UConn stays, different story, imo.
AG on a short leash...he gets 4 years to show what he can do with his own recruits, just like any other coach would/Should. If that's a short leash, then yeah I guess he's on one.
