As much as UTEP is on a figurative island, you do know the MWC has a member on a literal island, right?
The AAC stretches from Storrs, to Tampa to Dallas.
The Sun Belt(football) geography only just got better by virtue of cutting NMSU and Idaho.
Rumor is the team in Storr wants to go back the Big East for everything but football.
If the MAC would take their football I think that would be a great move for UCONN, but I'm not sure how much incentive there is for the MAC.
But even then, that only lops about 200 miles off the northeast end of the conference. Philly to Tampa to Dallas isn't much better.

You make the conference tournament exciting by winning games in November and December. The rest is window dressing on a dumpster fire.

We should take UConn football and make them schedule 5 home and home non-conference basketball games a year with CUSA teams as a trade off.

Pass.
Traveling to Storrs for football every other year is not worth seeing them in basketball every third year.
Are we also adding NMSU football? Hard pass.
