Brendel mentioned that there is only a few people in the industry who set up these 3 game tournaments. We apparently didn’t impress the right people when we went to Maui the last time because UC was a late addition and a replacement for Louisville. UC ticket office didn’t have time to get ticket packages out and we performed very bad in attendance. They want teams who stimulate the local economy. My guess this is why mick is really pushing this cayman island tourney because he is building a good relationship with the promoter so they can cone back every 4 years.

From the looks of it, we showed pretty decent for the cayman tourney.

Mick tried to lay the ground work for the cayman classic to be a premier tourney in the future. The resort the players stayed at looked really nice

I want AAC to be an undebated power league. But we need a strong UConn & Memphis to make that happen. Once both return to being nationally respected, I’ll go back to wishing every loss on them.

The big east fans want all the teams in their league to do well in non conference Because they know that if they slip up in the league it means nothing.


Imo we destroy UConn bc they can’t shoot and we can guard them one on one which Oregon could not.

And if UNI wins I’ll take everything bad back I said about them. And I hope to goodness they scrape the ground with Xavier.
They shoot the 3 well. M
Imo we could beat Nova. They just don’t scare me

I’ve heard this reason before. Not sure I 100% believe it. I’m sure there is some truth to it but I think there is more to the story. I mean there are teams in some of these tournaments that have never been good and don’t have any following.

Close 1st half...Villanova pulling away a bit 8 minutes left...still, no great shame in SMU losing to UNI

Welp. SMU just helped negate that win by losing to Another mid major program.

That sucked

Dismal day for AAC...SMU's shining moment looks a little dim now

Would be nice to see Tulane keep the momentum going and beat Georgia state today.

Also UConn vs Arkansas and UCF vs St. John’s could really help the conference if both teams win

I can't believe St John's is #50 in KenPom.
