Rain drops

Been awhile. But the wife and family went out to soaks in the rain today in Florida. No wind, just a down pour. Beautifully cold and crisp rain drops on our heads. Bring back a lot of memories.

She took some pictures. I am getting old looking. My sons looks great in the rain water.

FBS Revenues

NCAA financial site:

Football Bowl Subdivision | College Athletics Database
Pretty good data. FY 2023.
Replying to myself as usual. WSU in FY 2023 had the lowest Athletics revenue of any team in the Power 5. And it's not even close. We had $79 million. Oregon State is the next lowest at $91 million. Everybody else is above $100 million. Most of them? WAY above $100 million.

G5? 3 AAC teams are higher than WSU, a couple of whom are Big-12 bound. Mtn West?, SDSU is a shade above $100M. Air Force is just below us. The rest? $50-60-some million.

What's the point? OK Cougs. We don't have the resources to compete in the P4. $5 sez if you look at NIL revenues the results are similar or the same. So let's pull up our big boy pants and do the F-ing reverse merger with the MW where we should be at or near the top dog along with OSU. NOW. Effective FY 2025. QUIT DREAMING! We punched above our weight for 100 years. It's over. CSU, Wyoming, SDSU, etc. are not chopped liver. Embrace it.

Top 25 G5 vs P4 Upset Alerts

A certain team in scarlet and gray gets a couple mentions on this list. A couple notes regarding other MW teams: Note A) BYU-Wyoming: They mention how Provo is a tough place to play, yet the game is in Laramie (Go Pokes!) and, Note B) BSU at Oregon isn't mentioned, yet in the separate B1G vs P4 write-up, it gives the Broncos a 'warm' upset chance, which I think is better than Hawaii's chances vs UCLA.
