Great pic. Seriously, when are they going to make those 'American' hats available??? The AAC website just has a few shirts, etc. It's nice looking gear, but I want that hat!!

RE: The 2016 & 2017 AAC MBB Championships to be played in Orlando
AAC fans are taking a new cult like life. seriously, we all know we would accept a P5 invite in a heartbeat......but the conference pride blows away any of the other G5 conferences. slowly but surely, we are getting to ron paul status.
if this keeps up, we keep winning, and we start packing the stands........ we will be able to sign a better media contract next time around, and possibly even sign with an access bowl to become part of the P6. with good media ratings, packed stands, multiple ranked football teams, strong basketball with multiple championships, and consistent appearances in the G5 access slot winning most of the time......there will not be any other option providing there is no more re-alignment.....which appears to be the case for now.
these next 5 years are going to be HUGE. we need to duplicate this past years success over and over again. come bowl and media deal negotiation time in 2019, if we have 5 more years under our belt like this last......... the P5 can stand on their head........ but the only thing that they would be able to do is raid us.....outside of that it will be P6 money and bowls.
even our resident idiot wouldnt be able to refute that.

You don't remember how loud and vocal his supporters were during the election?.......almost a cult like following.

Love Ron Paul and the American Conference! He was a much better option than the loser in the White House.

Orlando, Tampa, Memphis, Houston, Dallas... too many good cities in this conference to repeat years in a single spot.
Wouldnt be surprised if Orlando/Amway Center offered a nice.discount if AAC would come for 2 yrs straight which probably help secure 2017 too.

Okay now I get it.
I remember him clearly, just didn't get the connection with AAC.
