The on the field product is the best it’s ever been and yet our base continues to shrink.

The current model is unsustainable

They dont want anyone to know, they're getting a very low cut of the Media rights deal.

Why is the MWC going after the PAC when the pre-PAC agreements were with individual schools?

Bc if the MWC doesn’t get their $150 million there is no pac.

It looks like more and more everyday that the SBC 2030 is the smart move. Hunker down with your close friends and SURVIVE.

This PAC 12 is like going to see a current version of a band that you used to love. They don't look like they did years ago. Somehow, they are still touring with a couple of remaining members.

Now introducing "Deep Purple! *"

*With replacements at lead vocals, guitar, keyboard....

Perfect

Must be a big tsab fan if even your bands are purple

Yep, because we would be in a position to negotiate what exactly? A deal that cost almost $10M in losses up front and have to hide it from the state legislature and major supporters? I posted the link so you guys can see exactly what it is going down. You can't negotiate what they don't have to offer. It's borderline fiscally irresponsible and they are trying to hide it. But hey, our fans want deals cut and don't want to pay for premium seating and parking.

Sorry brother, but we don't have the money, and the UL-System would never let this fly today. Maggard is doing what is reasonable and our President is not about to try anything now that will push him out the door before Fiscal 2026.

This paired with the ULS blow back had TJoe lifted a finger to fight this about sums up the entire ordeal. Sad state of affairs but this is as blunt truth as it gets.

Also saw the PAC and MWC are going to court over the $150 million the departing schools owe the MWC.

Found it.

"The MW is in line to collect up to $145 million in poaching fees ($55 million from the Pac-12) and exit fees ($90 million from the five departing schools)"

What is crazy is the,Mountain West can survive on 7 members (total) while the Sunbelt would have imploded with a division of less than seven.
