It was reported by the Houston Chronicle that Cincinnati, Central Florida and Houston will have to pay a hefty fee of $45 million to leave the American Athletic Conference by 2023.

The three future Big 12 schools are contractually required to remain in the AAC until 2024.

In the article, it states that on top of the $10 million required exit fee that Cincinnati, Houston and UCF are also required to pay a $35 million fee to leave the AAC prior to the 2023 fall season as opposed to the 2024 fall season. AAC bylaws require a $10 million exit fee and a 27-month prior notice to leave, hence why the school’s are contractually obligated to stay until 2024.

Meanwhile, CUSA will be receiving $45.00 each from USM, ODU and Marshall. 

And one of those coupon books sold by high school bands with a $2 off a slurpee coupon you totally intend to use, but is still sitting on top of your microwave 5 years later.

That's actually the CUSA TV money we get from the deal Judy McLeod made with Facebook...

I looked at the 2018 CUSA tournament the other day and the first two rounds were on Facebook Live… I totally forgot how depressing that was. ESPN plus and Stadium feel miles better compared to that

Isn’t Stadium just Facebook Live grown up? ESPN+ has just come into its own the last couple of years.  As someone who lives way out of state the streaming options have allowed me to watch almost every major UNT sporting event and for that I’m thankful.

I don't know about any connection between the two.

I feel like we are primarily on two networks, Stadium and ESPN+, and anything else (CBSSN, FB Live, etc) is secondary/exception.

Between the first two I listed above, I would take Stadium 10 out of 10 times.  They seem really into our program.

You are correct.  Stadium started as a joint venture (not Facebook) and then grew through a series of acquisitions.  I was recalling an agreement Facebook made a few years ago to stream Stadium basketball content via its Facebook Watch service.  I think that's the only linkage and why I was thinking about the relationship between the two.

One of Stadium’s parent company’s is the Sinclair Group.  They been broadcasting media over 50 years.  So Stadium TV has old media DNA and infrastructure to build on.  They had regular TV access from day one in some markets.

      Evansville (11/5/24)

      Massie is basically listed at the same build as both AScott and TBell…our starting PFs for the last four seasons. That’s at least part of the reason I see Massie as a fit at our 4…so much of our defense is built around switching, denying entry and team rebounding…so we’ve never needed 6’8” 250 at the 4. I agree Vice is such a big wildcard. If it’s literally just him and Sissoko sharing minutes at the 5 and giving say 12/12 collectively, this squad could be a monster and legit ten-deep. this level of pre-season speculation is pretty darn fun. We are not have like three dudes on the roster we’re pretty well confident in knowing what they’ll give us…Walker, Sissoko and Stone…everyone else is kinda up in the air. personally…I think Wright is knocking on the door of 20ppg…with Floyd, Josell, Massie all around double-figures…balanced by Walker, Newell and some center combo giving 7-8/game.

      For the players and coaches, yes. For the student section, nope. They’re kids. Let them make some lifetime memories and rip the goal posts down.

      Memphis's Tyreek Smith Hits Portal Hours Before Opener

      What's happened to APR? Is that still a thing? It used to be that if more than a few players left a football program (much more so a basketball program) without graduating in the same year, it would kill a team's APR.

      Memphis's Tyreek Smith Hits Portal Hours Before Opener

      Have almost given up trying to figure out time lines with college athletes. Tell me how in the world athletes can transfer three or four times and still be on any path to have the proper amount of hours at a school to graduate. It has become a total joke.
