Message: [QUOTE="Fishy, post: 2953816, member: 38"] If UConn ever signs a grant of rights in the American, people need to be fired. The conference has zero leverage over any school that would force them to submit to a GOR against their will. No one should sign a GOR in this conference. No one. There’s no conference network that requires the commitment of the schools and there is no financial incentive to give up their right to leave the conference for a better deal. Whatever deal the conference gets should not be affected by the lack of a GOR. Like we have now, there can be a reduction clause that reduces payments should certain schools leave. This conference is an amalgam of dissimilar schools without even the common thread of geography to bind them. I don’t want to hear anything to the contrary - everyone is here because it’s the best they could do. It’s the best of the “other” conferences. [/QUOTE]
