USF, Cincy, and UConn are the only 3 AQ schools in college football who will be making LESS MONEY now than they were before, incoming schools can get bent.And no slick, they can't go back to CUSA. You're wrong. They could try and start their own conference without the 3 of us though. To that, I say go ahead and good luck. We can pocket those fees as well and go independent for a year or two until we get scooped up by a power 5.Yeah, they could go back. Boise St went back.Go independent and end up back in CUSA in a couple of years? Have the majority of the new conference come in pissed off? You do know once in they could end up voting as a block against things the 3 original members want, right? Cough up some **** money, get the deal done and go forward.

That said, these new members are getting AQ status this year, far more than what they've had in previous years. Win. They're getting more $$$ coming in from their previous situation with this new TV deal. Win. Us and the other two holdover schools - we've lost a ton. We're getting a fraction of what revenue we've been getting. Loss. We're losing AQ status if we stay beyond this year. Loss. How it doesn't make sense that we (meaning the holdovers) need to absolutely retain the bulk of the incoming funds from buy-ins and buy-outs is so far beyond me.

Boise went back because the two conferences were lobbying over them. CUSA is now full and does not want those who left. Nobody is lobbying them to go back. And how the hell do you know where we'd end up in a couple years? You have NO CLUE, as usual. The new teams aren't even in the Big East yet, they have accepted invitations to join at later dates. They have NO LEGAL CLAIM to the current money being divided. NONE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
