What rule says they can’t have those conversations? Prove that it is illegal. Cal and Stanford would still have to stoop to that level which may not happen

You got 3 of 4.
CaliStan wouldn't tolerate Boise State and their below average academics.

What new FBS requirements? You mean one of a thousand proposals that hasn't even been scheduled for a vote?

Talk? Sure.
The minute they begin to act as a group to willfully withhold exit fees that's conspiracy.
Also, most conferences have disclosure by-laws that require you to disclose if you've received an offer or are in talks. It normally requires abstention from voting.

No, the "fund 90% of grants in all sponsored sports, 210 total grants, $6M in grants, 16 sports" proposal scheduled for vote in September. It also does away with the 15k average attendance rule completely.

The MAC pushed for elimination of "15k"; the trade to get it was the 210 grants for $6M requirements.

If we can raise 58 million for the new IPF, adding 1 million in student aid is a foregone conclusion

I don't think that will be a problem. At the rate they're growing the endowments, a good portion will be funded automatically each year, with the goal of having all scholarships funded by endowments.

If you're already fully funded, who are you going to give them to? 22 more football scholarships doesn't get you there.
