UAB to host AAC Championships in 2026

[I.I.]

and then USF the next two years. I suspect the BOK was not interested in bidding.

Odd that Memphis didn't bid.

Im just glad it's out of Ft Worth. Much like the WAC days, AAC needs a "home" team to host the tourney. Should have better attendance than in Ft Worth. Wonder IF the Don Rey could make a bid someday? The TW reported the other day that even thought the AAC tourney is being held in communities w/ schools associated w/ the AAC, the actual AAC tourney's will B held in the local community civic arena, NOT at the local AAC school arena just like when Memphis hosted the AAC tourney was at where the Memphis Grizzles play not at Memphis's home venue

I read somewhere that Memphis only wanted the men’s tournament & the AAC wants both tournaments in the same city.
