In a little bit I'll be posting some detailed information about Stanford and why they are the best institutional fit to go with Notre Dame.

Stanford has the largest endownment ($41.9B). They are the only Pac 12 member that is in the Ivy Plus network. In fiscal year 2021, the endowment disbursed $1.33 billion. I share that because it matters to the Big Ten....cont

The Big Ten wants to make sure a university is financially sustainable and have the donor level to sustain top level academic research and education. In 2020, the Big Ten did $11.5B in research expenditure. Stanford would bring an additional $1.2B.cont.

Stanford would do the 3rd most research based on the data. When you do over a billion dollars in research a year, the Big Ten's academic alliance can save a univeristy millions of dollars a year through the Purchasing Consortium....cont

Because of the ability to The BTAA supporting students to share courses across universities, all Big Ten universities would be able to better compete for students that attend Ivy schools....cont

USC, UCLA, Stanford and Notre Dame would bring roughly $4B of new money into the Big Ten. I know that isn't shared among all universities, but as a whole, that is a massive increase, improving student body experiences and collaboration even more...cont

that is one of many reseasons the Big Ten goes into a lot of detail when vetting a new member and why, after Notre Dame + Stanford, it's going to get extremely difficult to add anyone else after that....cont

The general public will see this as sports money, but the Big Ten will view it as a $4B acquistion.

How can Kevin Warren go to University Presidents of the Big Ten and tell them "Oregon did $90M FYI21 for research expenditure" vs over $1B in Stanford. Kevin is not stupid, he knows the Oregon numbers would be an immediate vote rejection, IMO.

There are many issues with Oregon - low student enrollment, low research expenditure, small tv market/population, bad admission rates, football value doesn't pay for itself as a Big Ten member (not enough added value). Kevin can't take that to vote vs Stanford.

Stanford - massive research expenditure, large population, top tv market, 4% admit rate, elite academic/research, massive endownment and theres a lot more. Stanford vs Oregon = Kevin has no choice, really, it's too obvious.

$1.25B/16 (being conservative) + BTN + College football playoff + basketball, etc. My best educated guess on what the money would be per school for the new TV contract is about $105M per school and goes up from there every year.

Just a little FYI when talking about schools who could get admitted into the Big Ten. Every Big Ten university is ranked in the top 89 in the 2021 Academic Ranking of World Universities (ARWU) - National Rank and world rank none of them below 300.

People wonder why Arizona State gets mentioned with the Big Ten ...this is why...global ranking is 101-150. Higher than PSU, Indiana, MSU.
