Horizon League is in. It will be the exception not to be in.
Yeah, Horizon voted UNANIMOUSLY to REQUIRE all members to provide FCOA for men's and women's basketball. I doubt it gets a whole lot lower on the totem pole (particularly at non-P5, non-AAC/MWC football conferences), but it is pretty clear that a solid FCOA is going to be a bare minimum for major schools going forward.
Whilst researching this topic I ran into a post which stated that all members of the Sun Belt Conference will pay the FCOA. There was no amounts given. The Sun Belt is the lowest of Division 1A football schools. We know that Val stated a few months ago that the BE will pay the FCOA but the information we lack is how much each school will pay. That is a rather important fact.
Wow, that's crazy. There's no way those schools can afford very high FCOA for very long. There's also no reason for them to since they aren't going to steal recruits from anyone higher conferences. Weird.
