WOW....

The Big East office will then take an operating cost fee of another $5 million, which will reduce the total to approximately 72 million, which will then be divided evenly between Cincinnati, UConn and South Florida.


The new Big East schools that will be part of the Big East football league next season–SMU, Houston, Memphis, Central Florida and Temple will receive approximately $1 million each


Ouch......Welcome to the new conference boys!...Whatever its called!

I don't see the problem.

I think it's pretty clear how USF, Cincy and UConn feel about their situation, and this may be their last big payday for awhile. They earned that money, got left behind and this is what the cost was.

I'm sure all 3 would gladly have given up their share to move to another conference.

The real screw job in all of this is for Temple. If you remember, Temple paid heavy fees to leave the Mac early and actually played in the Big Least last year because they were asked to. Now they are left holding the bag for leaving the Mac early. Dirty!
