CUSA on the NFL Network (10 games a year).

The fact that there is no mention of money is a bit concerning. Are we going to be giving away our top game every week?

Don't get me wrong, the exposure is great but I'd like to see some sort of compensation.

More than likely it’s no money, but we don’t pay production costs. It’s handing away leverage in bits and pieces, and won’t see us generate any real revenue until we get almost everything on one network and start generating good ratings, but I wouldn’t expect any more than this from Judy.

Everything that matters is absent from the news, and she gets away with it. However, it does sound better than facebook and Al Jazeera.

this kinda crap is exactly why this conference and its leader are POS. We give away our best games of the year, and i use that term loosely, for ZERO dollars?! WTF!! thats beyond stupid no matter how you spin it. The money gap between USM and P5 schools is already huge and beyond closing up, But now our conference and its stupid leader are gonna make sure that there is a huge gap between CUSA and the next conference. Baseball is just the last sport to die from this money gap just look at this season for proof. USM is done from ever being remotely relevant in any sport nationally from here on out especially with our current leadership and CUSA leadership.

Exactly correct. Our only hope is to get in a new conference. 100% of our effort and money should be dedicated to this.

Unfortunately, we won't be talking about it in 20 more years as all our programs will cease to exist by then.

It may very well be that CUSA gets no money from this deal. It's not mentioned whether we do or not. Usually NFL network pays a portion of ad revenues if basing it on previous contracts like the AAF. So it is a decent possibility I think that we will get some money from this deal.

Just a test to see how it goes before they sign a big contract with the AAC....

They are supposedly adding the MWC in 2020.
