I'm sure there's a substatantial exit penalty, a conference would be stupid not to have one and the (Old) Big East has certainly learned their lesson on that. That being said, it'd be $10 million well spent for UConn for the chance to join a legit P5.
I didn't look but I think it is $30M for the first 5 years, then a lower amount for the next 5 and then the regular withdrawal fee after 10 years.
what a sad little man you must be. UConn's acceptance rate in 1985 was 70%. you didn't graduate from the ivy league.
*shrug* ok, you think Creighton is on par with UConn. Check.
