"@BlakeKrek @CSURamT Say the departing teams leaving pay $12M instead of the $18M owed and OSU/WSU pay half of the $55 so $27.5M. The breakeven is likely in year [--] of the contract. But if a merger had brought $1M-$1.5M less per school now you are talking about 8-12 year break-even"

"@Bomb3r_B12Mafia @MountainWest Yes but they will be distributing between $60M to $110M in buyout and poaching fees to their legacy MWC schools. So those schools will be fine"

"@brigs_175 They will be fine. The MWC is going to pay them $ out of the poaching fees and exit fees from the MWC schools that are departing. Even if we settle at 60% that is going to be over $70M dollars to the MWC that the legacy MWC schools will get"

"@BullSheetAlumni HAHAH. I hope not. That would be stupid. They need USU and SDSU to make the tournament so they can collect those NCAA credits. WAC is a one-bid league so it doesn't matter"

"@brigs_175 I do see your point because UNLV and AF are each getting 24% of the fees and SJSU Nevada Wyoming and NM are only getting 11.5%. I think NM should be getting a bigger piece but AF and UNLV are bigger brands"

"@eelison1 @RonnieLuceroNM @CSURamT If NM fans are honest with themselves they would prefer to be in the PAC because they are a MBB school and a quality one at that. If PAC fans are honest with themselves it was a mistake not to merge. Create a [--] team PAC with Hawaii/AF as FB only and GU/StMary's and BB only"

"@ByChrisMurray Good article. I believe a merger would have been a better outcome for all. One argument I have is that in the MWC I believe the top FB brands will be NM UNLV AF at least next season. Those will be the most games picked up. In basketball it is going to be NM Nevada GCU"

"@mugtang @1BroncoBeliever And this will all be for naught because there is going to be another move in the next [--] years when all these media deals end. Both the PAC and MWC will look different in [--] years"

"@CSURamT @RonnieLuceroNM @eelison1 @CSURamT yes but that is my point with a merger and minimum investment requirement. This whole thing was handled very poorly. NM UNLV Nevada AF are all better additions than a TXST. If we had just merged with investment requirements we all would have saved a lot of money"

"@CSURamT @RonnieLuceroNM @eelison1 This is true and why MWC went and got NIU. TXST does get you into central Texas (where I live) for recruiting that is great but nobody cares about TXST out here"

"@AlwaysCallHeads @Genetics56 Here was the issue that I had mentioned from the beginning. My school and WSU had too much pride to merge. We brought in a BB only schools with a full share and divided the western TV slots so TV networks got the upper hand on negotiations with PAC and MWC"

"@rltsports @rltsports I am hearing that the MWC presentation went very well and that the payouts shared are higher than expected. The MWC commissioner is visiting OSU in person today. OSU/WSU will be talking with AAC also but do you see an advantage to the AAC vs MWC if $ are similar"
