every unit (awarded for an appearance) in this year's tournament will earn about 1.67 Million for the Conference over a 6 year period. So right now the AAC has earned about 8.5 Million to be distributed over 6 years. Cincy could add to that by advancing. A Conference like the ACC has earned as many as 21 units in a single tournament which would be valued at 35.07 Million distributed over 6 years. And they consistently do it over the 6 year window multiplying payouts annually. They are currently sitting on 64 Tournament Units coming into the 2018 Tournament. So you're looking at annual payout of over 16 Million for the ACC

Kind of surprised that the NCAA is allowing the NIT to compete directly with NCAA Tournament on TV today. That's new right?

Don't make Wes have a couple of players we were close with as recruits on the Aggie floor? And maybe a recruiter to boot?

Fun to watch Cronin panic like a petulant 8 year old without his meds. And they would have gotten loyola. Lol. L’s up to Mick

The sad thing is the NCAA actually gave The American great seeds for the first time this year and the conference just blew it.

How did Cincy blow a 22 point lead with 11minutes left.

Well this is why the AAC doesn’t get love from the tournament committee. Have 3 top 6 seeds and none of them make sweet 16. Maybe it’s not just SMU who is snake bit in the AAC.

Back to getting crappy seeds next season. Cincy and WSU killed us. UH was found money. Embarrassing for those two teams.
