That’s where Coastal Carolina fits into the discussion at this point as Appalachian State has no obvious travel partner as the lone Sun Belt member from the Carolinas.
The appeal to the Chants, meanwhile, is perhaps more obvious.
The university presently pays the Big South approximately $27,000 per year in conference dues and that figure is set to increase to around $33,000 for the 2017 fiscal year and an estimated $40,000 for the 2018 fiscal year, according to information provided by the school’s athletic department. In return, the conference gave its members disbursements of less than $90,000 last year, from NCAA basketball and other revenues.
According to a report last December by the Business of College Sports website, meanwhile, the Sun Belt received at least $12 million from its share of bowl game and College Football Playoff revenues and distributed that money equally (after travel subsidies) throughout the conference.
