This list is based on Football, which of course will skew UConn negatively. This is a better indicator overall, where we can see UConn is the last P5-level G5 generator left

Well, if is ONLY based on FB, UConn would be a lot lower, don't you think?

So after some digging it looks like the data comes from this tweet and basketball success is taken into account. The fact we are so high from Basketball alone is a great sign. With an OK team I'm assuming we would be ahead of the last G5s. We are not at our athletic department ceiling, the other guys are or are very close

Also take a look at this. Obviously besides massive basketball revenue we are already spending as much as recent addition Houston and nearly as much as WVU, Cincy, OSU, and Wazzu

So that is good to know. If UConn goes to a bowl and wins it this year they will make a jump in that particular ranking even though it would likely require several years to make a lot of improvement.

Well yeah, it could take time. My point was UConn already spends and generates more than any other G5. We are the only one left taking in 100M annually; the other G5s at this level all made the jump recently.

We are already at the level to join the P5 financially with basketball alone

The only positive I get from this is that for as much as Rutgers spends on football, they suck (compared to their Px conference mates). If we could right shift to where Kentucky is on that graph, that may help a bit...but winning would help a lot more.

More chatter recently about WSU/OSU resurrecting the PAC from the dead. Don’t know if they can pull it off, but interesting.

Certainly fulfills rules #1 ... thus seems very likely.

I don’t think we’d accept full membership in that mess anyway. That’s just the American all over again.

A Gonzaga member/UConn football only with some guaranteed OOC basketball games might be a good deal for everyone involved

He's been posting the same or very similar graphics since things were imploding this summer. He's a rando with a dream.. in August he "reported" that the Pac leftovers had merged with the American.

Am I reading that wrong, or does that say $50M or 50% of those revenues are a subsidy?

The website isn't very clear but regardless our "percent allocated" is less than Houston and about the same as UCF, and similar to other candidates USF and Memphis

Since our revenue is larger overall, that amounts to more non-subsidized revenue than the others

Iowa-LSU's average 12.3 million viewers are more than:
• Every women's college basketball game ever
• Every ESPN college basketball game ever
• Every MLB game last season
• Every NHL game last season
• Every MLS game last season
• Every NBA game last season except one
• Every CFB regular season game last season except one

So time for the B12 / ACC to ask what can UConn do for them nationally for women’s basketball in a power conference.

Shows the power of the media when they have their mind set on something

LSU vs Caitlan and Iowa was a hugely hyped grudge map between two stars. That game may draw better than the Final.

 

[WestHartHusk]

UConn - Iowa may get up there too.

 

[RioDog]

UConn - Iowa may get up there too.

Will be a struggle to get to the same level given the abominable time slot- 9:30 (earliest) Friday night. Dumb dumb dumb on the part of the NCAA.

Welp - that still leaves the ACC with:

1) BC
2) Syracuse
3) Pitt or GT
4) Duke
5) Wake
6) Miami
7) SMU
8) Cal
9) Stanford
10) ND ... maybe

So then add:
11) UConn
12) WashState
13) OregonState
14) maybe Memphis or USF.
