$$$$$$$$$
No ONE and I mean NO ONE else will drive home gates in all sports at those schools like we do -
Not USM, not Marshall, not FIU, MTSU, not UTEP - NO ONE...
They will make bank and increase gate in football, baseball and basketball by 30 to 40% from us just walking into the place - EVERYONE and I mean EVERYONE loves to HATE the HEEL
They will want us to sweat bullets - but in the end dollar bills always talk
DeeWayne! Don't you dare come on this board spewing truth!

What HD posted in this thread is correct. The information put together by the Marshall fan about the value of each league, and their true revenue numbers gives a real picture of CUSA.
The problem is that the leadership within our schools and the conference office has done a poor job of pointing that out. They've really never even tried.
Here are the current amounts each team is getting by conference. Of course, this is all might change due to the recent activity.
SEC $40.0 Million
Big Ten $31.4 Million
Pac 12 $21.0 Million
Big 12 $20.0 Million
ACC $17.0 Million
AAC $7.0 Million
MWC $4.0 Million
MAC $600 Thousand
SBC $500 Thousand
CUSA $400-500 Thousand
Pretty much a tie with the bottom three.

I sincerely hope if that happens, it will be short lived and we will be back together in a conference. Thanks for letting me come to this board and post over the recent years. I will always pull for your Dogs when not playing my Eagles.
Classy as always, SpreadEagle. I second your statement about it being a sad day if we aren't conference mates going forward...I want us to stick together through all this, but I also know, some of us won't have much choice in what happens regardless of our personal feelings. You're always welcome here. Don't be a stranger!
Dang, I'm super sad right now.

Of course it does! Louisiana has all its schools collecting student fees, in the form of tuition, lab fees, registration fees, etc...what a dumb statement to make. You must never have attended a college in the state of Louisiana, every school charges students fees.

Correct. CUSA's "lack of transparency" on these issues is killing 'em. They've allowed the rumors to fester until they are now a problem.

That's the best post Ive seen in a long, long, time. From anyone.
Re: If it's true So. Miss to the Sun Belt...
Check the link, y’all have 500k in student fees. It was passed 5 years ago I think.

You are being obtuse. Let me clarify, no student athletic fee at UL. Is that better?
But you already knew what I was referring too.

No student fee at University of Louisville? Not relevant.

Honestly this is what y’all came for. I’ve pointed this out all week. Y’all keep coming back to a “fan board” for this.
This is why UsL needs Tech.
The hate. Feel it course through your body. Already tensing up. Let it flow!
As DfM says, “Tech is the school every other state school loves to hate. And NO other school drives ticket sales quite like the heel.”
Face it. ULM is chump change compared to Tech. Nobody cares when USL beats ULM for the 16th time in a row. My guess is that game barely moves the needle for ticket sales.
Tech is the enemy. Tech is the one everyone wants to see fail. Tech is the one y’all need to destroy.
The irony is our administration has done it all for y’all. Y’all didn’t have to worry about us because the leadership has sabotaged us all along. Inept hires, nonexistent vision, no greater planning. It’s almost like Guice was placed here to sink the university by the University of Louisiana system. Imagine that?

You guys are ridiculous.
Re: If it's true So. Miss to the Sun Belt...
Guice wasn’t hired here to sink us. That’s over the top. TMac was a bad first hire and the damage he did is still being felt. You can put the hire on him, but nothing has been deliberate on his part in that nature.

Nah! he's like Biden, he just naturally effs up. Doesn't have to try, it just happens with every decision he makes.
