XL Center, I'd have to guess?

Yes that is where UConn plays their "marquee" games. The Gampel Pavilion on campus is located in Storrs.

Bad location for fans in the league outside of UConn and Temple. Memphis makes more sense geographically. If they are going to rotate, one has to believe we could get the tournament in Cincinnati if we had a modern arena.

Just another event the city of Cincinnati is missing out on due to the very dated US Bank arena.

UConn deserves it, This to me is the AAC showing their gratitude to UConn for being in their conference and making the national champions want to stay in this conference for years to come.

I personally like it in Hartford, only a 2 1/2 hour drive for me

Per various reports, the American Tournament will be in Hartford in 2015 and in Orlando in 2016 and 2017. No more Memphis for a while.
