WTF ESPN
Despite the loss of Louisville, the American should boast multiple NCAA tourney bids.

I saw that headline on an ESPN story and was quite dumbfounded. How is that even a story? The AAC didn't have the best season by a conference ever last year, but they certainly proved that they are an extremely good conference where multiple tourny bids is a given, not a possibility worthy of analysis as to whether it will happen or not. What other conference has as good of a year as the AAC has had only to get cr.ap like this? It's like a football writer saying the SEC is expected to have a team ranked in the preseason poll.

You are only a year old and many people couldn't name half the teams in the conference. You haven't got all your football teams on board yet and won't have your first CCG until next year. Everyone has to get to know you and see that you have a good product.

ok...but the defending men and women's bball national titles from last year are to a member of the AAC and there are storied programs like UC, Memphis, and Temple. Long and short of it...an idiot would know that we will be a multi bid league most years.

1. Don't ever refer to me as an AAC fan. EVER.04-chairshot

2. That excuse would be fine if a casual BB fan uttered it, but an ESPN writer doing it is 100% inexcusable.

I still say most fans don't know who you are in BB or FB. You need to get your name and teams out there under the AAC banner and let fans get to know the teams who make up the AAC.
