Stings the nostrils a little bit. In a good way.

Something seems unfair in these contracts. CUSA's entire league now earns about 10% of what the AAC earns each year. Basically one AAC teams earns about as much as the entire CUSA league each year. Meanwhile Wake Forest earns about as much as the AAC does each year. There is no way that college sports leagues can go on at this pace.

It's crazy.

Last year ECU collected as much as the entire CUSA will collect next year from TV revenue.

It is crazy. This type of economic disparity can not continue. Something has to give. There is no way that schools can keep up with this type of spending and shrinking revenues.

CUSA, MAC, and the Sun Belt wont last much longer.

The next round of alignment will force the AAC to take the best schools from the MW/MAC to get to 16 schools. That would reduce everything to 6 conferences.

Wake Forest is a welfare case. FSU, Clemson, VA Tech, Miami, etc create that $20 million dollar value.

I think this is the death nail for that conference, they should seriously listen to logic and drop down to FCS. Eric Bischoff said it best after answering why WCW was sold to WWE. He said without the tv time to air the product, the company is worth 20 bucks. C-USA is now worth 20 bucks.

Death knell. Lmao. Tulane. Haha

Have you ever actually read a book.

Between that and the WWE reference, this guy stinks of corn dogs.

No, I stink of academics, markets, and money from tv revenue. Good luck with the Pizza Hut coupons you got for your new tv deal. I am sure they will go to good use.

I would love to have whatever drugs you smoke greenwave 16! That must be good stuff.

The Mac is in a different place than CUSA and Sunbelt. Schools are making 3 to 4 times the TV money, and travel cost are much lower.

Hell yeah, you ain't lying. Of course, being a UAB fan, I probably won't have the revenue to purchase it, ay Greenwave16?

Not to mention your academics are too low to use high quality drugs.

We's nut stoopid! We's jus differnt!

At this point their TV revenue isn't even covering travel costs. They should humble themselves and reorganize with the Sun Belt into two more regional conferences. Maybe they can even negotiate a joint CUSA/SBC TV deal so nobody feels like like they got screwed.

Yup.

Its high time somebody in a position of authority call an audible. This is getting so far removed from the mission of the NCAA that it it is getting criminal. The B10 is set to distribute $40m a year to their members from their TV contract revenue. $40m vs $200k. Think about that for a moment.

Mission Statement of NCAA*

Core Ideology:
The NCAA's core ideology consists of two notions: core purpose - the organization's reason for being - and core values - essential and enduring principles that guide an organization.

Core Purpose:
Our purpose is to govern competition in a fair, safe, equitable and sportsmanlike manner, and to integrate intercollegiate athletics into higher education so that the educational experience of the student-athlete is paramount.

Core Values:
The Association - through its member institutions, conferences and national office staff - shares a belief in and commitment to:

· The collegiate model of athletics in which students participate as an avocation, balancing their academic, social and athletics experiences.

· The highest levels of integrity and sportsmanship.

· The pursuit of excellence in both academics and athletics.

· The supporting role that intercollegiate athletics plays in the higher education mission and in enhancing the sense of community and strengthening the identity of member institutions.

· An inclusive culture that fosters equitable participation for student-athletes and career opportunities for coaches and administrators from diverse backgrounds.

· Respect for institutional autonomy and philosophical differences.

· Presidential leadership of intercollegiate athletics at the campus, conference and national levels.

In 2016-17, CUSA will make $2.8 million FOR THE LEAGUE. That figures to $200,000 per team. Texas will make $45 million.

If at the least FAU/FIU move back to the SB, that will help a bit for both conferences divisions to be more regional.

I saw the other day that Auburn HC Guz Malzahn has purchased a BMW I-8 to impress recruits. The sticker price on that car is ~$141,000. If they had no other expenses or source of revenue, a university in C-USA would barely have enough money to buy that car from their TV money. Think about that for a moment.
