How elite would BYU sports department be with a $250M Annual budget?

So basically we’d be on even footing after the $50M worth of bribes to the HC office.

The honor code is the hold up. BYU would be significantly better with current budget if the HC went away

This.

But then magic wouldn’t happen

A huge budget alone would help but as Texas shows

I think the drastically diminishing returns for BYU would kick in well before we got to $250M

Two main impediments for top level performance:

Neither of these matters as much as the limited pool of recruitable athletes.

Isn't a large limiting factor to the pool in fact the HC and the HC office?

I don't think so.

5/23/22 3:12pm

Like ND, TCU, Baylor, SMU?

I had no idea ND taught Book of Mormon. That's cool.

5/23/22 3:31pm

As I stated "religious classes"...

BYUFam1

5/23/22 3:39pm

That's my point. Big difference between religious in general, and LDS.

5/23/22 3:44pm

Can't imagine a top recruit saying "no thanks Alabama I don't want to take that

A friend graduated from ND. While each dorm had an assigned priest, in between

Fine if BYU were willing to pay for players

This is where I am. likely a top 20 program, but never elite

BYU is one of the most efficient AD's in the country in terms of performance/$$

As others have said- the honor code is an issue- in the 80s the honor

Crowton came in and tried to do that. In today's world, the 80s attitude doesn't

Exactly.

5/23/22 3:56pm

Well, it can't be forced.

CFP in 5 years if NIL. If BYU AD gets the money then it doesn't do much.

Which schools WOULDN'T be elite if they had a budget 25% more than anyone else

krindorr

5/23/22 7:52pm

They should keep some kind of honor code, but not the current one.

BlueHair

Colossal waste of money. Law of diminishing returns. No different than a 10-15

GeorgeAlbertsgoatie

Does ANY school have a $250M annual budget? Surely that is "no".
