Joining the Mountain West would run an $8MM - $9MM annual deficit - can we overcome that?

In Arizona there is a critical shortage of nurses everywhere with the highest need in rural AZ. Rural AZ has the most critical staffing shortages but there are plenty of nursing positions with sign on bonuses and relocation assistance in Phoenix and Tucson too. ER’s are short staffed on nurses across the whole state. All 3 colleges in the state UofA, ASU and NAU offer nursing programs but it still isn’t enough to fill the demand.

Im guessing it's probably a national shortage.

Thats because the opportunity is solely based off hope. You have some and Helena doesn't, at least on this topic anyway.

No. I think overtime the conferences adding now to maintain the status quo won't want to split the trickle down money from the P4 with more schools. If the P4 leaves them in the dust, there won't be the incentive for conferences to keep adding schools. If you find an opportunity, it will happen because many schools drop football due to finances and there is a need to latch on to survive.

The hope is when the eventual split happens, the G6 will let one or two of the better fcs conferences into their new league. Im guessing off your statement, you dont see the hope in that happening?
 
HHH, I knew you couldn't support what you said. You seldom can. You just doge and bob and weave.

A big Jared/Ivanka protest is going on in front of our hotel in Tirane, Albania. We had to bought in through the back gate. Protesting the proposed island development. Protests everyday. We are off to dinner at the one of the top restaurants in Tirane.

I think that if this happens, the G6 literally becomes the equivalent of FCS. The big question is what does the loss of money do to many of the G6 schools and the ability to support football?

I did. You are the one that hasn't provided support for what you said.

Why would they do that when the G6 is already around the same size 1aa was when the subdivision was formed? There is no incentive to further dilute their brand by adding FCS unless as HHH said many of the G6 drops football and those programs need to be replaced.

Sorta but not really. Technically now, ranked by division, the fcs is schools #139-266 out of 670 ncaa football teams. Say when the split occurs and the g6 hopefully invites the BSC(i know i know, theoretically speaking) and the MVC, that would automatically jump us into the pool of #70-160. So yes, its still a second rate league to the P4 but its still a league above where the current fcs is. And to your second point, that only helps us climb higher up the ladder.
