Not sure if serious but yes. Easily top 25 every year if every top LDS player came to BYU
Finishing outside the top 25 would be a very disappointing year on a team made up of all the best LDS talent.

The BoT doesn't want to write $2M checks to multiple people

We don't need the checks from the Church. Just let us spend the money the football team and donors bring in

So are all donations to a general athletic fund? Booster money doesn't go
coug almighty

BYU does not bring in P5 money. Our fans donate the equivalent of a good G5 school.

tell the BOT we are paying leach $1M. Have qualtrics and nuskin send another $5M

So how do these wards view the church handing money to a state school?

Add in fancy practice facilities and locker rooms when my EQ is given a $100

While that's typical it's also up to the discretion of the Bishop to decide

Doesn't the AD earn their own money but really isn't allowed to decide how to
mudpupper
9/10/19 11:08am
So their membership in the church is contingent on receiving a monetary benefit? More money already flows into those
Pimpin4Paradise

I didn't say it's contingent

There are two problems, money and talent. Might as well not try to fix one

I somewhat agree. The BOT doesn’t really want to advertise how much any church

The living expense is a salary.

It might be a "salary" but I guarantee it isn't very much. Enough to live on,..

I disagree. Multiple coaches are not paid $2M because

On a more serious note, the real reason is budgetary

Further, football furthers the mission of BYU

Non-Issue. Different Coffers. The Football team brings in plenty of revenue

What about spending billions on malls in downtown SLC. People in other regions
Zak
9/10/19 12:29pm
Exactly.
Bad Plus Fan
9/10/19 12:46pm
that's a for-profit business, resulting in even more revenue that can be used
Bostonblue
9/10/19 1:16pm
Right. But point is that the people in regions mentioned in the main post arent
Zak

They should. That mall helps fund more church buildings and missionaries.

You really think wards in Bogota know or care about the coaches salary?

9/10/19 12:36pm
Not today, but with the availability of information and future development, yes

9/10/19 12:57pm
Then why did they build a 5 billion dollar mall?

What do economics have to do with appropriation of money? ROI is one thing
coug almighty
9/10/19 1:26pm
it's apples and oranges. One is a for-profit business. The other is a non-profit

You didn't answer my question. Anyways, if you think anything the church

I answered your question. ROI is the primary purpose for-profit business.

Holdings vs actively managing... The list goes on and on, Des News, KSL, Deseret

I'm not trying to argue over whether there are other factors that may impact
Bostonblue
9/10/19 2:48pm
Completly agree. I just don't think the Mall or the football team is analyzed
coug almighty
9/10/19 2:57pm
I think church leadership is absolutely looking at ROI. And they are dang good

They're not. And they don't have to because the AD can write its own checks.

They have the perception problem whehter they spend $10 million in the aggregate

Yeah it's all relative. With that argument you might be able to disband BYU

The BYU football team always makes more than they spend.

What do church real estate holding outside of downtown SLC have to with CC mall?

Church has all sorts of holdings is the point. BYU is a great place to invest.
