Yep. I really don't care that they are gone, but more the fact that Judy had NOTHING in place proactively to keep them from leaving the way they did. Either hard line stance they can't leave early or financial gain for the remaining members in order for them to leave early. Zero repercussions in place for the SB3 to leave early.This is all Judy. Unreal.
Has anyone found out what was agreed upon for them to leave? The bylaws have been in place before Judy took over as commissioner. Can't really blame this on her, you can blame what was negotiated.
Is there a Board that Judy answers to?
Marshall, ODU or USM leaving didn't change any of this. We played all of those teams at home last year and we had jack squat there.How much money does that equate into the pockets for MT?
That 2022 home schedule isn't exciting at all. Sorry, but it's blah. Good luck getting butts in seats for those games.

When all is said and done and all the schools leave, MT should pocket an additional several million dollars (around ~$5 million). I'm way from that info right now.I've specifically asked that question on Twitter and crickets. Didn't expect a direct answer but was hoping they would see some sort of statement needs made but nope.
Additional thought : Who knows how, when, or if MT will receive it. But that's the expected total. And I think that's why MT ultimately made the decision to stay in CUSA.When all is said and done and all the schools leave, MT should pocket an additional several million dollars (around ~$5 million).

Aside from the portal business. I am OK with what our conference looks like.
I have heard that some of the funds will go toward improving the broadcast MT puts out on CUSA TV and other media.Additional thought : Who knows how, when, or if MT will receive it. But that's the expected total. And I think that's why MT ultimately made the decision to stay in CUSA.
IIRC, it would cost roughly ~$5 million to leave, but MT stood to gain ~$5 million to stay. That's a $10 million dollar swing and that's money that can be used TOWARD facilities and prepare MT for the next round of realignment (when, or if, one happens). With new facilities, MT will be better positioned for a change (that said, it's sad that it took getting left out for the President to realize this).
The new CUSA seems like it could be a pretty solid conference across the board. NMSU, Liberty, Jacksonville St and MT had strong MBB seasons. Liberty is already a top G5 program and Jack St / Sam Houston St are good FCS programs.
Some funds should be directed toward restoring MT sports to 89.5 FM.I have heard that some of the funds will go toward improving the broadcast MT puts out on CUSA TV and other media.
Hopefully they invest to ESPN+ quality. I have a feeling that will be a requirement for all sports if we were to move to the AAC.N.

At least buy a taller radio tower so we can pickup the games outside of the current 8 mile radius.Hopefully they invest to ESPN+ quality. I have a feeling that will be a requirement for all sports if we were to move to the AAC.
