There is an article in the WSJ this morning about the value, in millions, of major-conference college-football programs.

USF was ranked at number 53 with a value of $101.2. I was shocked to see that we beat out some other football programs with a lot more history and success. As a comparison, UCF is ranked number 65 with a value of $57.0

Perhaps the Gods to be at the ACC or B12 will read this and see how valuable we are :)

I think we beat out everyone else that is currently in the BE, Connecticut was ranked 52 with a value of 101.8.

Interesting find.

The chart in the link you provided has us at 53 and UConn at 52. Was there another link somewhere in the article. I don't UCF ranked at all on the chart. It looks like Pittsburgh is number 65, not UCF. According to the article, these rankings are for the 2011-12 season. With that in mind, it wouldn't have taken into account our 3-9 record this year and conference mess, so we probably dropped.

The chart just shows a ranking of selectively chosen universities.  Not all of them in order.

 

Try this one for the interactive chart.

 

The interactive chart you are linked to if for 2011 evaluations. The one in the first link is for 2012. The value represents what the price of the program would be to a buyer.

Edit: What's up with the quote feature?

    "I wish you guys could be in the locker room and be on the practice field because it is so much different from what it has been in the past."

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."

    Terry Lucas, 09/26/22
