One thing that is pretty funny is the hoops money....

Atlantic Sun now with FGCU will be getting 8.25 million dollars from 2014-19 seasons.

That's more than 13 conferences. Not bad considering this year 1st time they've won more than 1 game in the tourney in a while....

Oh- and for those that are interested-
MAC - 8.5 million dollars(250k more than A Sun)
Sun Belt- 9.25 million dollars(1 mil more than A Sun)
CUSA 10.75 million dollars

I'm sure programs in that league could use the $$$.

And that is with the large majority of the NCAA tourney money going to pay for NCAA overheads for all sports, the scholarship subsidy pool, the constant conference share, and all the other ways the massive amount of March Madness money is spread around.

Imagine how much it would be if half the net revenues went to the conference representatives.
