I'm speaking purely on quality of program and program interest, which will lead to media $. The current AAC deal likely looks very different post 2031, assuming the top of the conference is elsewhere. Gonzaga, Or St, Wasu, SDSU, Fresno draw serious eyeballs in their markets and nationally. I like being with Memphis and Tulane, but I'm really concerned about blow-up risk and don't want to be back with La Tech/UL. If we lose the top of AAC to PAC/ACC I would much rather be with MWC than AAC leftovers + CUSA/Sbelt backfills (if AAC can even lure them).
At this point in time, what is really stopping schools like Ohio St., Bama, SMU and so on from just putting their players under contract? because i know it's definitely not the NCAA... what is their risk as employers?
