I'm sure Charles Koch had no problem paying the entrance cost. He probably found the money in his couch cushions.

The current deal ends in 2020, we aren't getting anything until then. The slice will be considerably smaller than the other AAC schools, but we are expecting to get a slice.

Does the AAC have to pay to get games on TV?

Haha I hope all the relevant AAC schools are gone by 2020. Would make my day to see Wichita stuck in some terrible league having to play teams in NC and FL and barely get any money from TV.

What would be the difference of playing in the MVC? Still going to fly to every game.

This has been discussed but there’s basically no scenario you can come up with that results in “all” of the relevant schools being gone. Even if some disaster scenario happened, we’ll be better prepared to take on the future and head down a path that our President and administration has a vision of achieving some day.

If the AAC fails then we tried and failed and ended up in a terrible league with schools in NC and FL. If we never joined the AAC then we never tried and still failed and ended up in a terrible league with schools in IL and IN.

If Evansville were playing schools in Florida instead of Indiana, what would the current difference be?

Yes such a terrible league Let's compare our leagues shall we?

League A:
1 P5 victory (Over Indiana On the road By 21)
A double-digit win on the road over a quality program (Winthrop)
Multiple victories against solid mid majors (Western Kentucky Wright State )
Only loss so far on the road to a top 10 team

League B:
0 Power 5 victories
A HOME LOSS to a team from the SOUTHLAND
Big time struggles against such basketball powerhouses as Florida Atlantic and LIU-Brooklyn and UMBC

Just some food for thought

Yes and I make it with full knowledge that the AAC will most likely grade out ahead of the MVC at season's end but those were facts as of the time of that post (Illinois State has since lost to FGCU so one of my points is no longer true) but just because the MVC is a league you've outgrown (and congratulations on that by the way) doesn't make it a terrible league. It's still a top 10 conference and to talk as though the AAC doesn't have its bottom feeders (ECU USF Tulane ) is very disingenuous. These teams will cause seeding headaches, maybe not as severe as the ones in the Valley but still. Moreover realignment may have a negative effect on the AAC, since programs like UCONN and Cincinnati may look to leave and who knows who might replace them? You might get some decent programs out of the likely end of the Big 12 but will the conference be stronger on balance? Plus, you'd have to fight the Mountain West for those schools and that conference has a trump card in football that cannot be matched in Boise State, which will appeal to those football first Big 12 schoolsso there's no guarantee that the AAC would get those schools. It's unlikely but possible that Wichita State could end up paying major travel costs to dominate a high profile one bid league within five years the same fate you fear for the MVC. If that's all right with you then have at it but don't be surprised if the administration at WSU considers a return to the MVC if the future unfolds as I've written it might.
