MWC getting blown up

Did I hear correctly that OSU and Wazzu are using their money to pay exit fees?

Why not just join the MWC and keep the money? A lot of wasted money to just keep the name.
They don't want the whole MWC from what I've seen. It's about choosing the right teams to maximize media $. Just adding OSU/WSU to the MWC wouldn't hit $10m by itself. Hawaii, Nevada, New Mexico for example don't add what Memphis or Tulane would. The MWC parts are worth more than the whole.
Go ask Cal and Stanford. Make them say know, they would save money with travel expenses, and they only get 30% (going off memory) media money.
They signed the lengthy ACC Grant of Rights. So unless FSU figures a way out from their lawsuit and it opens the doors, they are stuck. Plus they didn't want Boise or SDSU back before the PAC collapse.

The whole reason for this now is the MWC deal ends after next season. But talks hadn't started yet. Now the PAC can jump into negotiations ahead of them and get first dibs on the west coast game money.
