So, they want to get out of paying any exit fees? Why not just negotiate a lower fee, like SU and Pitt did? Also, the lawsuit "alleges the Big East has failed to collect $39.5 million in withdrawal fees from departing schools -- money that was set to be divided up among remaining members." Didn't we pay an initial installment when we informed them we were leaving? Maybe they are talking about money beyond that initial installment. That $39.5M would seem to include the entire WFVU portion and the remaining SU and Pitt money, if my math is right. I thought the remaining money owed was due at the end of the negotiated interim period. If so, how can they say the league failed to collect money not yet due? Did TCU ever pay the $5M they negotiated?
