Nobody knows how much NIL dollars are out there, because (1) collectives do t report anything, and (2) private schools don’t report anything publicly.

Appreciate the share. They are basing their by-school (and conference) numbers on assumptions based on existing contributor base. So if a school has $60M in contributions and another has $30M, the first school would have twice as much allocated to them. The assumption is probably the best way...

Now you're just arguing to argue.

Also, Butker is going to get paid soon. He's got one more year on his contract, I expect he's going to get a decent raise.

If you just compare the years they have both played, Butker is 70.8% and Tucker is 64%

To be clear, Butker is 1.1% behind Turner in career FG%. Butker's longest is 60 yds and he has a higher FG% from 50+. Butker also has a much higher FG% in the playoffs (88.9% to 81.8%) and a higher Touchback % (70.8% to 64%). Turner has been doing it for 12 years, so he definitely has the...

You can see the governance structure of the GTAA here. The relevant portion: So, it's not like they are off competing against each other, per se. The President and the Executive VP for Administration and Finance at GT are on the board, along with 11 faculty, 7 alumni and 3 students. This is...

I'm not sure where you're getting your numbers, I was looking at this. Investment income is in the $600-700K range. But capital contributions = 3.2M and permanent endowment contributions were $5.1M in 2022. Additionally, you can see on page 7 that we have ~$160M in investments, which is where...

Yes, 100% agreed. The other thing to remember is that the declared sources of revenue do not include income from investments or the sale of investments. The financial statement themselves show the value of these assets, which are effectively what sits in our "savings account". In the last...

The Athletic Association is not completely independent of GT - the finance department at GT still publishes their financial statements. I'm sure there are reasons for whatever financial structure they have put in place. If you look at FSU, they basically have three different entities that...

I was just referencing our debt in this post in a different thread. My contention is that we're doing just fine on debt, if you look a little bit deeper into how we've structured it. You can see that the top-line number is 6th or 7th highest of the P5 conference teams that report numbers...

https://knightnewhousedata.org/home That is for the base debt and debt service numbers, and then I did some fancy math in Excel to look at the ratios. I used the Athletic Association's financial report from GT to fill in the blanks in my head. I think the way we've been financing these things...

While our Athletics related debt is the 5th highest (~278M) out of the 53 universities that report numbers in the Big 5 conferences, that doesn't really tell the whole story. We rank 17th when it comes to total paid for debt service/leases/rental fees. The athletics related debt doesn't...

Right now, our Seniors make up 22% of minutes played and 21% of our points. Given the 3 incoming freshman and the return of Terry, it really feels like we will more than make up for the loss of Kelly and Sturdivant (23 points per game). Terry alone could bring 10-12 points per game, and then...

To answer the original question: it's totally possible. In Paul Hewitt's second season, 2001-2002, we started 0-7 in the ACC. We then went 7-2 to finish the ACC schedule, after having won our first conference game on Jan 30, 2002. This was the freshman year for Elder, McHenry, Luke, Ish...

Mark Pike, 7th round pick in the 1986 draft, was on Buffalo's teams for four Super Bowls Pro Football Reference Wikipedia Nice article about him after he passed away.

I mean, there was a ton of conference pride in the Southwest Conference in the 80s when I lived in Dallas. My dad still blames Arkansas for breaking up that conference, and he hates them.

About programs that elevated with money, off the top of my head I would say Oregon, Louisville and Oklahoma State.

Yep, I think OK State, Kansas and maybe Houston are the top targets. Probably looking for broader geographic groupings and big TV markets. Houston gives you a totally different market within Texas.

Exactly - totally agree.
