Since both teams hired new coaches. who will be back first?

UConn. Memphis will make waves in year 2.

Both. #1/#2 finish in the AAC most years.

UCONN

This ...

UConn has a decent core and added a great coach.

Memphis has an ok core but added a recruiter and TBD coach with most of his big recruits for 2019.

Too early to tell. Really need to see what the rosters look like next year.

Memphis will be more inclined to buy their way back, thus I pick Memphis

Define back.

Win 25+ games? 2nd weekend in the tourney? Regular season Conference title?

I didn't see the Neither option

Um, I think you might need to look into UCONNs NCAA transgression/APR track record.

We are both prepared to skirt the rules to get back to relevance.

Well, if it's winning tourney games, y'all better pray for both.

WSU, Memphis, and UCONN are this conference's only hopes in that department.

A bad APR isn't foul play. It's actually the opposite. UCONN reported its academic failures.

You were suspended from the NCAA tournament. That's not nothing. Plus, that's just one instance. You have other infringement issues in your past as well.

BTW, I am not slamming UCONN. NCAA rules are dumb and immoral...not UCONNs actions.

You bout to get smacked with the ban hammer!!!!!!!

Get em' Pony!!!!!

uconn tbh. memphis fans will be wishing tubby was still coach after 2 years of continued mediocrity from penny.

Answer to the question is TBD. My instinct is that UConn will rebound (whatever the definition) a little quicker than Memphis, due to a better core and a proven coach, but Penny is a wild card with recruits right now. Could be great or not. Roster is just too much in flux to have any real idea yet.

getting back to the old selves is different for each. Uconn has 4 natties in the last two decades. Memphis bar is lower, thus I chose them as I don't think Uconn will win multiple natties in the next decade.

I didn't think you were slamming UCONN. Just wanted to point out that the NCAA is is a farce for giving UCONN a 1 year ban for reporting a bad APR, while congratulating UNC for creating fake classes.
