How much do you think they take the MWC and the schools for after winning the lawsuit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am no lawyer so will take your word for it. I don't see how the MWC gets out of the Boise deal without Boise's consent which I hope they give.

The conference could easily take a position that results in Boise State being in disagreement with the conference that could, conceivably, be a breach of contract or simply nullify it.
