Hooch,

The Big 12 teams are inferior, from almost any statistic you want to look at. It's hard for the BIG 12 to compete when the other conferences are making much more money. Over the last several decades, numerous Big 12 and other conference coaches/coaching staff have moved up to the Big 10/SEC, and many Big 10/SEC coaches have moved down to other conferences. This has been going on for decades.

Hooch, are you just realizing this now?
And, if even one Big 12 team beats even one Big Ten team, there is at least one example of the perception not aligning with the facts for godsakes.

The Big 12 teams may be a crap ton more profitable than some of the SEC teams. Neither you nor me have seen the books.
The books/financials are public record, you drunk moron! :lol: We all know how much each athletic department makes, you dipshite! :lol:

And, for the last several decades, Big 12 teams (and other lesser conferences) have beaten Big 10/SEC teams, but that hasn't changed reality/perception that the Big 10/SEC are better and more well-funded conferences, by almost any statistical measure.

For the love of God, Hooch! Lay off the liquor should be your only resolution for 2026.

Holy crap, Wanker. Look how much more you know than me. I changed my mind. You should write more and not have AI make those pictures for you instead.

Anyways. You know a crap ton more than me. So much. And you have the facts. Given that, please tell us exactly how much money the athletic departments of Texas Christian, Vanderbilt, Baylor, Northwestern and BYU made since BYU joined the Big 12.

Thanks. If that is too much, just tell us exactly how much BYU made. Thanks you great big huge knower of so much stuff. Gosh. I don't know crap like you know crap.

Hooch,

Bless your drunken heart. Are you genuinely this committed to being a complete moron? This is all public record, darling. I’ll happily provide the starter kit for these first two schools, but I’m afraid you’ll have to brave the library, or at least a quick Google search, for the rest yourself. I’m a consultant, not a tutor for the remarkably dim and drunk.

Hooch,

Look, I’m not saying your basic research skills are stuck in the dial-up era, but if you still can’t navigate a public database that’s literally free for anyone with a pulse and a WiFi connection, I suppose I can play the role of your personal financial analyst, one more time.

Since the EADA (Equity in Athletics Disclosure Act) filings are apparently classified to you, here is the breakdown of BYU’s 2025 financial glow-up:
https://ope.ed.gov/athletics/#/institution/details


BYU Athletics: The 2025 Financial Cheat Sheet
The Big 12 "Full Share" Upgrade: As of July 1, 2025, BYU officially graduated from its "partial share" training wheels. They are now receiving a full distribution from the Big 12’s $558 million revenue pool. This puts their conference payout in the neighborhood of $40M–$50M, a massive leap from the ~$19M they netted in 2024.

The $500 Million Valuation: According to CNBC’s 2025 rankings of the most valuable athletic programs, BYU climbed to #57 nationally. Their department valuation hit $500 million this year—a staggering 40% increase that led all new Big 12 members.

The Athlete Payout ($20.5M Cap): Because the House v. NCAA settlement was finalized in May 2025, BYU is now eligible to share up to $20.5 million annually in direct revenue with student-athletes. Thanks to their "debt-free/no tithing" model, Athletic Director Brian Santiago confirmed they are uniquely positioned to hit that cap without sweating the bill.

Revenue Breakdown (EADA Public Filings): Total department revenue for 2025 hit $130 million.

Football: Generated $44.5M.

Men's Basketball: Generated $18.4M.

So BYU's share and revenue is less than every other SEC and B1G school?
