Conference preview season, and we're starting off on a patriotic note: it's the American preview! The league struggled last year, finishing just 11th at KenPom, and only Memphis made the NCAA Tournament (and quickly bowed out). Is that a new trend for the conference? Or was it a one-year aberration with a bounceback on the way? Matt is in the wind, so Ky and Jim discuss the overall landscape of the conference before breaking it down team by team. We talk favorites, the mushy middle, and several hot seat candidates, among other topics.
