I'm pretty sure everyone is struggling this year. Wisconsin and Clemson are

begging donors to keep donating money out of the unstated expectation that no games will actually be played. Of all of the schools in the country, BYU is in one of the best positions of any of them to ride this storm out because it doesn't spend itself into oblivion; and even it will take a beating financially this season.

Indy>>>Group5 if you're BYU. If you're Wyoming or New Mexico State, not so much.

And if we're honest, BYU could easily pony up the money to be a top program financially

LOL. How many G5 teams have a 65K seat stadium. A national following and a deal

Was HD available in 1984? You can answer your own question.

Go look at the list of G5 schools, and get back to us on which ones could actually pull it off.

Most teams make more money than they're actually worth by being in a conference.

Yep. Not being leveraged to the hilt actually helps BYU here. Other schools are, even big $$$ earners.

BYU is in a better position than most schools from a financial standpoint.
