Apparently, there have been discussions. The PAC 12 wants Connecticut to join for all sports, which is a non-starter. But, if they're willing to take us as a football only, and have no GOR or at least not one that runs longer than five years, I think we'd consider it if the money were right. If the valuation of what the P2 membership may be worth correct It could be eight to $10 million for Connecticut football for distribution rights. Plus, we get to stay in the big east. We'd probably end up making a combined $16-$18 million. Not horrible. Football travel isn't like basketball travel. We only have four games on the West Coast a year. In all likelihood, they try to would make them back to back to limit travel time.
Now, the big ifs and all of this is will they accept us as a football only member and can they actually get a vaguely decent distribution deal? As always, I believe it when they sign the papers. It's just healthier.
