Nebraska and Colorado both suffer from not having Texas schools on their schedule.
Being able to recruit Texas was critical to their success.

Alabama only has $95 mil in academic research. They should probably shut down
cougarfann888

But all of their research is in athletic performance. So...

And those things had exactly ZERO to do with why athletics conferences were made

Agreed - but it does matter to University Presidents who make decisions
krindorr
1/23/23 2:15pm
Because the Uni Presidents are nerds who have no clue how to run a real business

No argument from me there - not saying it's the right choice to weigh academics, just saying it's reality that they do

And it is why the SEC has left the P12 in the dust. Demos are why the B10 has.

No it doesn’t, alumni dollars do. This old tired PAC line did they developed

Seems they need to kick Oregon out. Or do their standards only extend so far?

Does anyone know what the ivy league would look like stacked up here?
ryebrye
1/23/23 2:08pm
Easily the best, top to bottom. The bottom ivies would be beaten out by only a few of these P5 schools.

You think someone on Twitter priding themselves on "research" would know that

Not sure what it has do with the ivy league schools but ok.

The ivy league is a conference... Their graphic ranks the top conferences

PAC 12 sucks at accounting, apparently, based on recent news.

They ought to use this as leverage in their tv package. Maybe get it streaming on LexisNexis

Honestly what did an AAU membership do for Nebraska
DJROSS
1/23/23 2:26pm
Got them into the B1G, which gives them an extra $50M a year....
krindorr
1/23/23 2:40pm
and they promptly lost their AAU membership
ManicBlue
1/23/23 3:02pm
Because fellow B1G members voted them out! 🤣

Yup, but it did the job.

Great they got the extra money but has it been good for their program overall? First 2 yrs in the B1G, they

Was it bad for BYU, moving from the WAC to the MWC?

I would love to have the AAU break down each school and how the research money is actually used to see the bloat

Wonder how that's going to look when they lose the AZ schools and add Boise St and SDSU? Maybe they should consider

The graphic heading says PAC 10?...

So much for their academic superiority
LeGrandBleu
1/23/23 3:04pm
Well they do only show the 10 schools remaining after USC and UCLA leave which are found under the SEC.

SEC?

I must be missing the point: was there a science challenge during the NC halftime?

B12 should take Oregon and ASU off their hands, both conferences avg goes up!

Funny they should list that as a qualification for B12 membership since Cal and Oregon St wouldn't qualify.

That's why Stanford,Cal >> Utah, because research is what's important for sports

I read a lot of government-funded research reports and from what I can gather, this is a badge of honor.
