we are a football only member.we pay travel subs.we get a 5% payout from the exit fees due to being football only,yet our exit fees are the same as full members.why did we sign on to stay with the MW? what are they going to do, fire us? we just agreed to be discriminated on for another decade.

When you have a subpar team for 2+ years, the smallest stadium in the conference and we cannot even get close to selling out the smallest stadium, you have no leverage.

Politicians, need to wake up and not be on this "Give us 4-5 years" demolish the stadium.

We shouldn't have to hear "give us 4-5 years to get Bowl eligible." Those days are over in college football.

2024 recruiting shouldn't have been so heavy with the HS recruits when everyone fan knew where the Puka's needed to be filled.

I think our exit fee was $3.5 mil. Isn't the exit fees for others more than that?

the current stadium situation and win loss record has nothing to do with the current realignment.both the pac and MW need members.we are in a position of having leverage for the first time and our leadership chose to bend over and take it in the okole.

That's what happens when the school, state and donors pour money into the school and program and the team starts to win. UH has none of that clout.

With UNLV staying put, doesnʻt it make the PAC and MWC peers now? Same same yeh? OR would the PAC still be considered the superior?
