The figures include the following:
• 59 DI schools spend more than $100 million on athletics; another 32 DI schools spend over $50 million; and a whopping 259 spend less than $50 million, with half of those spending less than $25 million.
• On average, 1.8 percent of Power Five athletic budgets is subsidized by student fees while about 15 percent of budgets in the rest of the DI schools are funded by student fees.
Where are we..? Pretty sure we are above 50 mil
Jesus, lol.Quote:

They want a super conference. They don't give a damn about the players, other programs or fans.
Well played sir.Quote:

Meanwhile…the new minor league will do great……..until people realize it’s not nearly as good as the NFL and it also lacks the pride and pageantry that college football used to have (due to the mercenary attitude of the players). It will fall in a grey area between amateur athletics and NFL and it will slowly lose popularity like every other minor league and NFL spinoff.
Can went for 180k and they were sneaky about it. Today, Cam would go for $2M and every booster in the country would know he's for sale.Quote:

I think a few years ago I read we spend 92M and make just over 100. But I might be misrememberingQuote:

I agree that within the next 10 years if not sooner a super conference will form for football. It will be about 24 or 32 teams that have the most money. I just hope basketball isn?t impacted too much as we could still be part of that and do well. Unfortunately, college football will be over for about 80 percent of teams as we know it. We will be in that 80 percent and playing in a different league with the likes of the big 12 teams and left over ACC teams. Because nothing happens immediately, I am going to enjoy these next 5-10 years of State in this big conference and hope Lebby can have a good run for a year to get us into the playoffs.
It will be more than 24 or 32 teams and we will be included if we want to be.Quote:
