News Schools
What are the chances the new schools simply cut the losses, walk away, form a new conference without the UCONN, USF, and Cincy?


Before anyone dismisses it I would just remind everyone that's exactly what the Catholic schools did. Plus, it's not like the new TV deal is so great you just couldn't walk away. It's not an offer you can't refuse.

This whole thing is a train wreck. The new schools have took it straight up the you not what with a big one.

They have enough schools and can get more if they had to.

I am so tired of these threads. I have been one of the biggest supporters of this league as the best for all involved. But all these threads are making me wish it would blow up and everyone go their way

RE: News Schools
That could very well happen. These new schools have been hosed and cannot be happy with the current situation.

This is just bad for everyone. The new schools cannot just roll over and keep taking these hits. Everybody needs to be pulling from the same rope and that simply isn't happening.

My problem is that no one knows what is going on but on this board UC,UConn and USF are to blame, as I said before the more I come to this board the less I care if we end up together.

I certainly don't blame UC, UCONN, and USF. I'm simply saying this might be a bad marriage with to many agendas. For this to work and be successful everybody needs to be pulling from the same rope.

I'd say the chances might be as high as 50/50. It is a real possibility that this collapses.

I think the chances might be higher that 50/50.

We are all stuck together and need each other for the CUSA6 to leave. The new schools need a much bigger share of the $100 million pot. The 3 holdovers sold off the BE name and now we have to rebrand. We deserve more money to make up for losing the name and basketball schools.

Im with Cubanbull on this one. Im caring less and less. Its build a from the ground job at this point anyway. Blow it up--dont blow it up. Probably doesnt matter much either way. Given the schools and payouts involved--for us, it will all shake out roughly the same either way.

Better now than later, everyone will survive. C_USA schools go back to making 500 thousand a year, Temple goes with C-7 and the other three will eventually end up in with the Big 5. Lets do it.02-13-banana02-13-banana02-13-banana

Your act is getting old, your one of the guys their talking about, a bigger share is all you talk about. Blame your past Presidents and AD's for your lot in life, their the ones who caused your football program to suck, just like past Presidents and AD's let UC's football suffer some years ago.

RE: News Schools
Branding from scratch is going to be a lot tougher than what some might think. Not to mention a new conference with so much uncertainty surrounding it is only going to tarnish the brand from the get go. Can it work? sure it can, but it's going to require every member being able to trust each other in combination with a singular purpose of making it work.

If grown men can't decide how to split $100 million then they deserve whatever fate they get.

Hey look! Your program is in better shape than it was when the BCS started. You need to be thankful for that.
