When we were in the Sun Belt we were hardly ever on TV, Fouts was crumbling, and the conference revenue distribution was so sad it was comical.
When we were in CUSA, the top-tier teams left, Judy ran the bus into the ditch, revenues fell dramatically, and our games were on Facebook, beIN sports, and sometimes ESPN+ with amateurs running the broadcast.
And now we're in the AAC... with the top-tier teams leaving again, the next media deal estimated to be lower than it is now, and an opportunity to join a storied 100+ year PAC 12 conference that want's to be the best of the rest.
We should not apologize for demanding more from our school's administration and coaches.
When we were 1-AA, we have to get out of this division
When we were independent, we have to get into any conference
Guess what -- each of those is correct. And when/if we get to the 2PAC, the immediate plan should be looking for the next bigger better deal.
One thing to remember, in each move from Independent to Big West to Sunbelt to CUSA to AAC, in *every* case the teams we expected to play were on their way out. So the EXACT SAME PLAN is working for everyone else.
It is sad, regardless, that so many people go unclaimed. Question: I was not able to find it, but who has the legal responsibility to search? It seems it would be the counties, but I'm not sure.
