That's not bad, considering what an absolute clusterfuck the football team has been in recent years.
-
We beat Oregon!!!!!1111!!!!
-
imagine if uw would win games
-
Taking what into account?
-
No Miami or Florida State?
-
I'm a little surprised to see USC so far down the list. Behind Arkansas and Auburn? Looks like Forbes is putting a lot of value on the draw of the SEC.
-
UW's overall athletic program must still rely solely on Husky Football for surplus revenue to cover for general lack of support for Olympic sports and that situation should get better as the football program moves back into the Top-10..... or at least that's what we should expect. AD Woodward now must do something permanent for the long term to get Husky Basketball moving upward again with a serious review of both the BB coaching and that expensive facility mistake. Time to begin unscrewing the Barbara Hedges fuck-ups.topdawgnc said:Forbes released its annual look at the most valuable programs in college football on Wednesday

This is what the Iron Laws are all about. Seriously. All we need is a coach

As for Texas? You could argue Oregon State has reached their level in the past four seasons.
Oregon State had a great coach and was top 5 in the nation in 2000, had a solid coach and have been a solid program for a decade.
WSU with Leach will probably be a consistent bowl team as well. -

this is about money.
and Wazzu will never have the money of a Texas or Alabama, the donor base just won't let it.
If what you say is true, Oregon should be in the top 5 ... factually speaking ... they just don't have the booster juice. They are Phil Knight, when he dies ... it is over for them.
Winning with the right coach is what it is all about.
But to be an elite program you the booster base, location, and sustainability. -
And that's after the worst 15 year stretch in our history.
-
Disagree? You basically just repeated what I said. I never said WSU or Oregon State can be an elite program but did point out with good coaches they can consistently be a bowl team.topdawgnc said:

Hell Oregon State if you had a playoff back in 2000 probably wins the national title two years after having like 28 straight losing seasons.
I just look at teams like Oregon, Stanford, Baylor, Boise State, TCU, Wisconsin, Michigan State in recent years who have all had great success recently and none match Auburn's Bullshit "Iron Laws". -
The rules:
Texas has been college football’s most valuable team since 2009, when it usurped Notre Dame’s top spot with a value of $119 million. The team’s unprecedented value is built on the back of the nation’s most dedicated fan base, which has helped Texas lead all schools in merchandise sales, secure the most lucrative school-specific TV deal and become the only college football team in history to cross $100 million in revenue, which the Longhorns have done for the last two seasons.
Last year Texas had income of $109 million; no other team made more than $90 million. The biggest source of revenue was ticket sales, which contributed $34.5 million last season, an increase of more than $2 million from the previous year. Texas football also collected $30 million from contributions and another $15 million from Big 12 and NCAA distributions.
I believe ... only 3 schools in the Pac can meet the three highlighted areas on a regular basis ...
SC, UCLA, Washington
Maybe Oregon ... I just don't think they have the donor base capabilities outside of the obvious. -

what am I missing here? ok, fine, I'm willing to swallow johnny come lately Florida and their 3 titles and miserable bowl record. but A&M? Arkanfuckingsas? South Carofuckinglina? Wisconsin? Oregon?
fuck, even Georgia, Auburn, Tennessee, Penn State and Washington are stretches over Miami. They would be stretches over Florida State for similar reasons to Miami, only less of them.
let me tell what makes this list stoopid right off the bat so that a blind whore could figure it out: Arkansas and Georgia are ranked over USC. it's like a top 20 list of law schools that puts Harvard at #17 and Gonzaga at #1. It means by definition that list is dumb.
but if this gives doog nation another reason to stroke itself, by all means. stroke away.
Iron laws. There's that dumb thing again. Miami has no $$ at all, which is why they're not on this list, and their history kicks the shit out of all but a handful.

they are? then how do you explain Florida State and Miami not even being on the list?Auburndawg said:This is what the Iron Laws are all about. Seriously. All we need is a coach
what Iron Law are they missing? and does it matter? (the latter question is 100% rhetorical).

The fact that Oregon is behind us despite their program in the last 10 years and ours in the last 10 years is incredible.

That doog has to be softy to post on ginafarm.

Yeah but they had the dude bra train going at full steam. 900 jerseys, Lebron James goes to their games, at least 1 imaginary National Title, Pink Clits for helmets for breast-cancer awareness. So many toolbags in SW WA walk around with their gear not knowing what a total shit-hole Eugene even is.
-
The ONLY reason Miami is not in the top 20 in revenues is that it is a small private school with a small alumni base. USC is private too, but they have twice as many students and play in a metro area 4 times the size as Miami (with no NFL team).
Miami lacks money and non-bandwagon fans, but it makes up for it by being one of the most geographically blessed campuses in the country for football. In other words, the exact opposite of Pullman, WA.
