In 2018, only Utah and FSU had higher football revenue for team not in P2.

That was already with us tailing off in performance. Kind of goes to show that if VT were to get back to 10 wins we'd be one of the most attractive football revenue teams.

How come our enrollment is so high compared to the Hoos, but living alumni

The big lesson from these numbers is twofold. First, SEC and Big ten

Your second point may not be as big of an issue if the administrative is

GT should merge with Georgia State.

I don't think GA State has a great academic reputation, so it would be
VTHokie2000 • 09/05/24 04:24 PM ET
Georgia Institute of Technology and State University. Good ring to it.**
DMaroonHokie • 09/05/24 03:04 PM ET
They could go with GPI&SU**

Nebraska is a small population state
Pylons • 09/05/24 01:52 PM ET
Georgia Tech has a huge graduate school population.**
wwhokie1 • 09/05/24 11:00 AM ET
You typically will see only the undergrad enrollment, about 18k I think.**

For GT?
EDGEMAN • 09/05/24 09:01 AM ET
as much as possible I did main campus enrollment undergrad and grad
HokieAl • 09/05/24 09:01 AM ET
another interesting data point. VT athletics is #7 for profit
HokieAl • 09/04/24 09:52 PM ET
That's a one-year anomaly**
wwhokie1 • 09/05/24 11:01 AM ET
Good point. Yeah I see that now when I look at past years**

If VT has to end up paying former athletes down the road, they probably...

Both UVA and VT have the same amount of living alumni?
UVa 2002 • 09/04/24 07:04 PM ET
Up until the mid 60s, VT was less than 10k students...
Culpeper Hokie • 09/04/24 10:12 PM ET
I thought that is was closer so I Googled it. UVa was 6K in 1965.

too much smoky mountain moonshine will do that to them

mancunian • 09/05/24 12:56 PM ET
It’s possible the numbers have changed since I gathered them
HokieAl • 09/04/24 08:34 PM ET
Living alumni is self reported by alumni associations. The data is iffy

In 2018, only Utah and FSU had higher football revenue for team not in P2. ◄
jesuisvtguy • 09/04/24 06:53 PM ET
