the A10 has had multiple bids 18 of the last 19 years. it's a very good conference.
parity this year might hurt it.
Revenue sharing in A10?

I don’t know what the Patriot League allows and doesn’t allow as I don’t really care but I thought I heard that they made some recent adjustments for football so perhaps other adjustments are made that allow some amount of NIL for its basketball players if there isn’t already. I don’t think all players will jump for increases in NIL as degrees matter for an extremely high number of D1 athletes. I would think most Juniors would stay and get the degree and maybe they leave after graduating with this new 5th year (or more as Mooney was saying), but at that point the team has gotten the stability it needs. I see a high school focused recruiting and you are selling player development and a degree. Will the skill and athleticism level be lower? Perhaps, but that same level beat this year’s powerful A10 roster multiple times. I just don’t get the A10 love. The games are competitive in conference, but at the end of the day it is a 1-2 bid league.
Rose colored glasses. I get it. 2 is multi-bid. Yippee. That wasn’t what was being sold when UR joined the A10.
You can hide a 20-year head coach who doesn't win a lot in the Patriot League. No one will ask question as long as he graduates players and they're good kids, and you win more games than you lose. It's basically Mooney's dream league.
Would we still pay Mooney $1.5m+ in a league where coaches make $400k–$500k? 🥴
