Jimmy hopes to play at Georgetown (guarantee) in 15-16. If we were in the A10 in 2015-16 then I believe we would not be permitted to play any guarantee games. I'm OK with a guarantee game once in a while but I'd rather see Siena trying to get 2 for 1 deals if that's possible. I thought the MAAC requires two years notice for leaving, or am I confusing that with another league (otherwise we'd have to pay $1mm to get out)? So if the A10 comes calling next yr we may not leave until 2016-17 otherwise have to pay money we can't afford. I wonder if the A10 would offer to pick some of that up if they want a school that bad? |

Didn't Loyola just pick up and go? I don't recall if they had to pay a huge buyout. Would be surprised if they paid 1 million to go to Patriot league. In fact if I remember they did not give much notice because I remember the debate of fan bases if they should be allowed to play in the MAAC tournament

I'm thinking 12 conference wins and 6 non-league games. Again it's early but if we could win 11 MAAC games this year - you add more talent/experience + the graduation losses of the rest of the league then I like our chances to win more than 12 MAAC games in 2014-15. |

For some reason I have this 2 year notice requirement stuck in my head otherwise a stiff penalty (like $1mm or something). |

Last I heard it was 1 million for one year notice, then goes down to 250k for a three year notice. It was put in place after Loyola left. If we can pay Mitch half a mill to interview Siena players, surely we can pay Ensor half a mill to get out of this hellhole if ever offered. |

Either that or the rule hadn't gone into effect yet |

My understanding is that the Presidents agreed on the higher buyouts, amount depending on amount of notice, but Loyola had not signed the agreement when it announced its departure.

I thought I read something about a buy out &/or providing a longer notice before leaving. Good to know I'm not loosing it.
I probably am loosing it but just got this one sort of right (lucky).

Lose the extra o in losing. It's the auto correct on my phone's software. I'm too lazy to proof read before clicking create post |
