The price for USM, ODU, and Marshall to leave early just went up.

Judy growing a pair?

Board of Directors. Judy probably didn't join the meeting until after the decision was made.

Looking at the comp schedule, it looks like they tried to make it where schedule makers don't have to completely reshuffle the deck if USM, ODU & Marshall lawyers win.

Example: 10/8 Current Schedule MTSU @ ODU, Marshall @ UAB; MT & UAB aren't scheduled to play, so they can easily schedule MTSU @ UAB

Some dates aren't so easy, 11/19 all 3 quitters are scheduled to play at home.

Too bad their original message came seven months too late to do what they want.

If Marshall wants clarity, fork over $2 million (or an installment on that amount) by March 1. Or else it should be suspended from C-USA membership as of date that and it still owes the $2 million by June 30. Or it gets to stay for 2022-2023.

FIU is scheduled to close with the SB3. If cancelled, they won't play in November.

I imagine this is all orders from the SBC office telling them to depart early.

If the Belch releases a schedule with any of those teams on it before the separation agreement ink is dry, it can pay up also. How about $1 million per school for tampering?

The three just assumed they would break the bylaws and walk away, negotiating a settlement.

It's reminds me of what UAB did when they dropped football. They just assumed that CUSA would allow them to remain in the league as a non-football playing member.

Poor assumptions.
