Is there something else not being factored in here ?

Very scary if these are legit.

Athletic Departments and their associated financials in the State of Texas

Its not sustainable for the people outside of the P5. Never was. Conferences like the AAC are living off of credit cards while trying to keep up with the Joneses while in a facilities arms race.

All while running 40-50% (or more) subsidized athletics budgets on the students' loan balances so they can amortize that extra few grand over the next 20 years in order to pay coaches millions a year...in 20 years we may all look back on this period and ask WTF people were thinking.

This is the most accurate and best description I’ve seen of whats going on right now. Also gives creedance to the notion of going indy in fb and getting hoops in the Big East...ir fb is dying a slow G4 death.

Big East and Indy for...Cincinnati?
