Here is a rather in-depth look at several aspects of college sports including budgets, winning, academics, and more.

I encourage you all to take a good long look. It does not paint a pretty picture of Memphis, but it doesn't look good for ANY G5 school. It clearly shows the difference between P5 and everyone else.

It also shows G5 schools that we are competing with to move up, and some of them are ahead of us in several areas.

Plan to take some time. It's a lot of data.

Only going to get worse.

That chart has the Mountain West pulling in over $20m. Their 2020 TV deal was for $4 million each, while the AAC is getting roughly $7 million each. Where does that additional income come from?

Yep. The G5 will be squeezed out altogether eventually

Yeah that's a good question Wolf. That graph is difficult to look at and see how the G5 programs can stay competitive without a benefactor.

Some other people around the net are questioning his numbers in places too.

I don't think all the individual schools numbers are right, but the overall conclusions are probably right.

Well, we've always known there is a huge gulf between P5 earnings and G5 earnings. That's why we're spending more than we're making hoping to get in on the P5 gravy train before it devolves into a P2.

Yeah I was doing all kinds of searching at the source and trying to figure out why the data I was seeing wasn't matching up with his. But after rereading his slide I completely missed what he said which also makes some of his data weird. He's doing this based on the future look of the conferences, but using past data. So the AAC's numbers are down because CIN, HOU, and UCF past revenues are removed and the CUSA teams past data is added. So that's how the AAC is lower than the MWC. I usually like to see Altimore's info (and I see he put out a lot slides today) but I don't agree with his methodology on this one.
