Message: [QUOTE="nelsonmuntz, post: 4990580, member: 833"] Doom and gloomers have correctly predicted 30 of the last 0 "this is the end of UConn athletics" events. They are one post away from saying that every Connecticut resident will have to pay for Ohio State's football team. What Fishy fails to see in his rush to look at this from the worst possible angle for UConn is that the $4 billion settlement is not going to be allocated pro rata per school. The schools that have the biggest revenue are going to have the most exposure of that settlement. We are talking about money that is already spent and gone. The odd benefit for UConn is that our football program has generated almost no revenue the last 13 years, so there is not much that needs to be split with the players. Texas, Alabama and Notre Dame, on the other hand, are potentially looking at 9 digit liabilities. Which in the doom and gloomers world, is bad for UConn. [/QUOTE]
