Track down your own logic...

Why would SEC and Big Ten keep adding schools if they already had an advantage?

Maybe but I have to see more examples **
HokiesACC2004 • 03/27/25 11:34 PM ET
But arent the non P4 on the hook for same $$ for "back pay" as P4? I
HboroughHokie • 03/27/25 06:29 PM ET
The NCAA is paying the back pay through reduced revenue distributions
GCHokie34 • 03/27/25 09:33 PM ET
Isn’t it over ten years?
RJHokie • 03/27/25 09:45 PM ET
Yes it is over a 10 year period. The NCAA is covering $1.1B of the

2hhoop3 • 03/27/25 09:39 PM ET
I personally think this is going to be great.
hokieZ71 • 03/27/25 05:12 PM ET
Villanova does have football, albeit 1AA**
ombandit • 03/28/25 01:26 AM ET
All this keeps me thinking VT ought to drop down in FB and focus elsewhere.
40ozDistrict • 03/27/25 06:10 PM ET
Yeah...uh, NO.**
marcbvtgm • 03/28/25 09:29 AM ET
Not a good idea **
HokiesACC2004 • 03/27/25 11:32 PM ET
Good way to see revenues drop off a cliff. **
GoldCoast • 03/27/25 07:37 PM ET
Well, keep throwing good money after bad.**
40ozDistrict • 03/27/25 08:09 PM ET
Great idea...until there isn't good money to throw.**
marcbvtgm • 03/28/25 09:30 AM ET
It’s not that, fball brings in 75-80% of the ad revenue win or lose

This thread says the model works.**
40ozDistrict • 03/27/25 09:16 PM ET
It does?**
marcbvtgm • 03/28/25 09:30 AM ET
Uh, hell no!**
ombandit • 03/27/25 07:25 PM ET
Hahahaha**
brownbag • 03/27/25 07:18 PM ET
I agree somewhat, but the money that comes in from football is important.
hokieZ71 • 03/27/25 06:47 PM ET
It's not "important"...it's essential.**

mghokie • 03/27/25 04:53 PM ET
What's the theory of "schools without football are going to clean up"?
nvpbrown • 03/27/25 04:02 PM ET
i bit on this earlier
VermontDDS • 03/27/25 07:33 PM ET
Long discussion down the page...
GCHokie34 • 03/27/25 04:05 PM ET
When Buzz Williams goes back to a BB school, I'll buy into this.
marcbvtgm • 03/28/25 09:42 AM ET
Being able to spend twice as much as FBS programs isn't ankle biting
GCHokie34 • 03/28/25 11:06 AM ET
Oooh, one school. But can Gonzago keep pace? Doubtful. It's ankle-biting.
marcbvtgm • 03/29/25 01:40 PM ET
Gonzaga as an athletic department pulls in 2 mil less than VT in profit
GCHokie34 • 03/29/25 05:25 PM ET
Why talks about BigE wanting ACC merger IF they're so advantaged?
VT757to276 • 03/27/25 04:30 PM ET

GCHokie34 • 03/27/25 05:00 PM ET
Added...past tense. They added value. There's little value left to add.**
marcbvtgm • 03/28/25 09:32 AM ET
Only reason they are adding schools is controlling future CFP money.
hokieZ71 • 03/27/25 05:19 PM ET
They're adding schools to increase their position even more
GCHokie34 • 03/27/25 05:51 PM ET
I’m not sure I’m buying this notion in the long term.
marcbvtgm • 03/27/25 04:09 PM ET
It's pretty straightforward numbers...
GCHokie34 • 03/27/25 05:03 PM ET
So VCU $5mil, VT $3mil (15% of the $20mil total)..advantage: VCU right? Or
HokieSA • 03/27/25 05:50 PM ET
$5 mil is for entire rev share
GCHokie34 • 03/27/25 05:52 PM ET
Fundamentally I have a problem basically being equal to a mid major then
HokieSA • 03/27/25 06:08 PM ET
I would imagine VT has a larger NIL budget yes
GCHokie34 • 03/27/25 06:35 PM ET
Would include schools like Villanova with lower level football that….
vtbball80 • 03/27/25 03:23 PM ET
Yeah pretty much all the Big East is going to take a step forward...
GCHokie34 • 03/27/25 03:30 PM ET
Do you expect a school like VCU to have an advantage over Tech and UVA?**
HokieBrazil • 03/27/25 04:00 PM ET
VCU has said publicly they are allocating $5 million to rev share...
