Dwayne has talked about this almost since day one of the Flogreement.  They've hosted other tournaments (baseball comes to mind) at facilities they rent.  They pitch it as a great experience for the kids but I think it would be more fun to have people in the stands.  Let's face it, nobody (except maybe Hendrix) is going all the way to Little Rock to watch that championship weekend.

I can't remember any other conference making similar statements post-Flo.

It appears that the SCAC hosted football, soccer, baseball and possibly others off-campus last season.

But I should have been more specific.  I would love to know what that means financially. 

The 30K per school number has been thrown around, but are they also giving a meaningful amount of money to the league?  Do the schools get less?

From what I've gathered, it really does depend on the conference.  Some have given the conference office an equal share with each school - money that's used to supplement championships, etc.
