One really nice thing for us from that chart, along with Directors Cup standings, is what we do with all that revenue, and that is win championships, and contend.  In most or all cases better than the other top revenue schools.

Two biggest surprises on that revenue list besides Aggy is Nebraska #6 and North Carolina #30. There was a time when at my suburban middle school in North Texas you could walk in and find hundreds of NC hats. Also a pretty big fumble that they don't own a chunk of Jordan

I really wish Trev would flame out super fast so we can get one last Sharp Special before he rides off into the gomer pastures.

Spending lots of money on billboards to brag that an athletics program has 'the best academics' (Vanderbilt says hi) and the 'cleanest program.' You can't make this stuff up.

Harvey Schiller, the SEC commissioner from 1986 to 1989, told ESPN last month that Texas would have been part of the SEC's first wave of expansion, along with Arkansas, in 1992 had it not been for the Texas state legislature mandating that the SEC also add Texas A&M if it were to bring the Longhorns aboard...

Asked if Texas joining the SEC was a done deal had the politicians not gotten involved, Schiller said emphatically, "The answer is yes. The conference wanted it. Texas wanted it."

Schiller said the SEC wasn't as interested in Texas A&M at the time and that A&M officials also had some issues with a move to the SEC.

"Interestingly enough, Texas A&M ended up being the first of the two schools [in Texas] to join the SEC in 2012," Schiller said. "Now, some 30 years later, I guess they finally got it right."

I’ve never seen this, but how is it surprising? The SEC wanted the best brand in Texas but took the 2nd best brand to possibly lure the best brand. If they didn’t get Texas they grabbed a Texas school that helped with recruiting in the conference. Pretty smart.

Why exactly should they own a chunk of Jordan?

I mean as a brand they were pretty much synonymous with Jordan back in the 80s through 2000s. I just figured they would have been early investors in that deal and be raking in cash.

Relax. They'll insist on someone with deep aggy ties. That disqualifies anyone competent.

Do you think there are conversations behind the curtain before the press conference.

New Coach (at whatever sport) Do we really have to do it?

AD :  I know its stupid but we have to.   It's harmless and gets them on your side.

New Coach:   sigh, okay.

 

Later at home:

Husband/Coach:  well that wasn't too bad.

There is no way in hell that Texas would have joined the SEC back in 1992 "had the politicians not gotten involved".

We would have gone to the Big 10 or Pac 10, but definitely not the SEC.

Is there a worse fit than aggy in the B1G? Maybe aggy in the old Pac?

[statsman 5,693]

I absolutely can believe that the Ags want everyone to think they might scamper to the B1G, hoping that the SEC would start appreciating them more. 
 
And I can see an argument for the B1G wanting them, hoping to get the B1G carried in Texas (does that revenue model still work?) and opening up recruiting (this argument also applies to FSU). 
 
I just can’t see them really doing it.
