How much money is Uconn going to get?

[Phoenixhusky]

How much of the early exit fee pool will Uconn keep after they okay giving up the big east name? They have to split it with Cincy, temple and USF but it may be enough money to float sports for a year or two? What does everyone think?

"One Milllllion Dolllllars...."

Ha ha! I bet, Uconn will find a way to screw up. I just want some good news for once! Just like six months with good news.......

Not a dime back? It's one of those things that can probably be worked out but no one who can will.

maybe its so big, that Uconn is the one holding up the Big10 expansion.

Herbst: Sorry Jim, you'll have to sharpen the pencil on those projections if you really want Uconn next year... what's that? Jim, stop begging.

I dont know the exact amount but I would think we would be making more $$ the next 3 or 4 years average out than we did under the last TV contract simply because of exit fee $$ and NCAA Tourney credit $$. And I don't think Temple would get as much as Uconn, Cincy and USF. If we are still here in 3 or 4 years we are in for a world of hurt and it will be a new reality.

Maybe the money will hold us over for a year or two and then we can find a conference home....

It was going to be 60M but Aresco will negotiate down to 4M.

 

[Phoenixhusky]

True, I cannot think this situation could have worked out any worse for us.

This is the most important thread on the BY because the $$$ determines everything. If its 60 mil split pro rata we will be flush for several years. And that buys us the time .

10 million unless the the presidents screw up the deal. Then probably 6
