I wouldn't know where to watch AAC basketball even if In wanted to, but it looks like our friends in Wichita are enduring a 7-8 season so far. Feel really bad for Marshall.

If you happen to venture from the bowels of cable and OTT viewing, despite being picked 8th and finishing likely finishing below .500, all of our conference games this year are on one of ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU, ESPNNews, CBS, and CBS Sports. You can watch us on Saturday on CBS! Might be an experience for you to watch a basketball game in a full arena for once!

Before you ask what I’m doing on the MVC board, I’ll answer for you. I have enjoyed watching Valpo beat up on the conference (especially that buzzer beater). Drake has (was) also been a pleasant surprise to watch this year. Really hated seeing Norton go down, I really think they could’ve been a legit contender for the conference.

As of today WSU has a better NET rating than any team in the Valley.

Safe to say we would have a better record if we were in the Valley. We wouldn't have started off 0-3 in the MVC. So we would probably have 2-3 more wins. But then our NET rating would look worse, even with the better record.

So with that...God Bless the AAC. And it's not going anywhere anytime soon.

Have fun when Cincinnati, Houston, and ucf are gone. Further down the line usf, uConn, and Memphis, too. Maybe you can replzce them with buffalo who hasn't proven sustainability in basketball. Rhode island, vcu, Dayton, and slu don't play fbs. That leaves 5 more teams to get in there. Good luck. Oh, and you're never getting in to the big East so stop with that pipe dream

Yeah you tell those Wichita St fans. Tell them how miserable they'll be. Tell them how in the absolute worst, worst, worst case unrealistic scenario in realignment where everyone leaves and breaks contracts and leaves millions on the table, Wichita will be trapped in a conference where the basketball is 35% better than the MVC's best possible basketball in its current alignment.





Wichita would win the Valley this year.

Anyone following the UCONN guy on twitter @NoEscalators ? UCONN is losing $40M a year on athletics. $5M of that loss is related to men's basketball and he attributes it to "the abysmal quality of AAC basketball". Fans don't want to see these teams and aren't buying tickets. Quite literally, UCONN, Cincy, UCF, Memphis, and Houston would sell their soul to get out of the AAC.
