UCONN is not AAU
UCONN has a poor football program
UCONN does not have a great market.

You could argue UConn has a market that stretches from New Jersey to Boston. I'd say that's a solid market. Even if exaggerated, they have all of Connecticut and an inroads to NYC, Massachusetts and Rhode Island. You can dock many things but they have a solid market.

Markets don't matter. Fans matter. Random people living in an arbitrarily-defined geographic area doesn't create value.

A population of fans willing to pay for content and watch content (and therefore advertisements) creates value.

I'll let UConn supporters/haters fight over whether or not UConn WBB has that kind of fan pull. I don't personally know a soul who cares about NCAA WBB, but if anybody does care, it would be UConn fans.
