What's wrong with UAB? Last time I checked, they were behind both their football and basketball programs.

No value.

Right now with UConn we're getting $7M. Assume we don't have to renegotiate the contract. Without UConn, if we don't add anyone, we get $7.6M by cutting the same pie into larger pieces. If we add someone, then we get back to the $7M.

That $600k may not seem like much, but it could be the difference in keeping a top notch fb coordinator and also a top notch bb recruiter. It could be the difference in getting a solid replacement for Norvell (one of these days). It could go into a fb assistants pool to help turnover.

Still, I'm okay with adding someone and going back to $7M. If the someone adds some other value (really good at something, natural rivalries, great location, raises our conference profile, etc.). I cannot see anything that UAB adds that would be worth giving up $600k a year.

$600k is more than CUSA teams got in its deal before 2018, I believe ($200k?). Every dollar matters for all non power 5 institutions.
