Yup. It would be like watching a bunch of conf tournaments if it was just the P-"X" of BB. They really don't get the appeal of having "everyone" in. It draws people who otherwise wouldn't care. ...

Wouldn't it be great to just say screw you and the majority of schools start a new association? Leave these goons to try and latch on to the P5 thugs. Everyone else can start fresh without those...
Screw em. We outnumber them. Make it even more than the counter proposal. Better yet, each school takes care of its own obligations for "back pay."
It isn't? Huh?
I think VMI may have a slightly higher percentage of in state cadets than us, but I'm sure they have more from the northeast than you think. We have mid 50% in state and 7%+ from PA north. NY and...
Hawaii? Wyoming?

After the one or two, or three at best, top teams in year, and they've usually been the same teams prominently, the rest of those conferences are not very good. There is definite...
I'm fairly sure lots of younger people have no idea about most of this info. Just a tidbit, my dad still reminisces to this day about all the games he saw between Syracuse and Colgate or HC back in...
Relevant question, and someone may know and mentioned it at some point, but how do exit fees compare for truly exiting a conference as a full member, versus just an affiliate. If they differ at all....
Well that may be true, but why not move everything. Is their any reason to stay for the other sports? There may be, but maybe not.
As compared to current situation or the PL? Yeah, no. The only bad outlier for Richmond and W&M would be Samford at about 11 hour drive. Everything on average would be comparable to old, pre-bloat...
Hilarious. Obviously someone on the zoning panel isn't getting their payoff or they are holding out for some business opportunity in connection with any expansion. Most places would welcome growth....
Much truth in this. That is so familiar. That's about when our decline started in earnest. Our games used to be events not to be missed. Now it seems more like an after thought to most and only...
6 hours ain't that bad. For their Bucknell trip. How far is it for them up to Colgate? The Citadel or Mercer to VMI is about 8 and change.
Ok. How many live on campus? Like 5K? On two campuses? Mostly a commuter school which adds very little to a sports experience since most could give a crap. What did you average for game...
Another biennial scalp candidate?
I'll buy that. None of their wins were particularly impressive. I can see them doing a bit of overlooking of the Mocs.
My estimation is not about how good SDSU is, but how good, and ready OSU is and will be. SDSU might catch lightning in a bottle, but probably not. OSU was a bit inconsistent last year, but one...
Throwing darts. There is always a head scratcher as well. I don't see #10, 9, or 4 as real good chances. The rest, maybe. And #6 doesn't really count does it? Lol. They are bragging in the...
Yeah I get that. But the gray areas is where the dirty details are. Player gets a NIL deal for being on team. He gets paid x amount per month. If he goes to a different state and has his picture...
Why? If a player earns it for a season, year? It must therefore be included each week/month, so they will be on the hook for each week of the season. Any out of state games will simply be a portion...
Oh yeah, forgot about that. Now these guys will have to deal with paying taxes in multiple states. This is becoming more and more entertaining to watch as it unfolds.
I was never taught about taxes, by school or parents, but as soon as I had to start paying my own at 21, I learned. And learned real quick. Down to the library I went and read anything available,...
That may be the original reason, but it'll never go away because of the 3 minutes of revenue currently. And the reason for adding it to college now is purely revenue based.
Except, as I stated earlier, we now enter the realm of subjective calls. Was it intentional or not? I like it being black and white. We all know how creative players can get when it comes to...
