Watch the video... not his ranking. It is from a private equity group.

Probably staffed by the Eccles School of Business

PE groups should know better than to calculate ent value w 3 yr old data

Rexy Coug

No competent PE group would do that.

That PE group has no idea what they are talking about.

Yeah, I watched the video.

Don't believe that for a minute.

It’s like they just drew names out of a hat

This isn't serious. TCU third? Lol 😆.

Exactly what I was thinking

TCU on a bad football year has the attendance numbers of a PAC12 school

Just some dork's opinion

foofcoug

Poorly done analysis. No way BYU is that low and behind Utah

Rexy Coug

Mar 18, 5:57pm

Genuinely want to know what criteria they use for this

Jwine24

Mar 18, 5:59pm

Whatever they could manipulate to put Utah ahead of BYU

This might be it ...

MissouriCoug18

That list is a complete joke as well

slatecoug

Arizona 4th is criminal.

Short_Changed

Mar 18, 6:00pm

This is the most egregious of all

Medute

Mar 18, 6:24pm

It made TCU at #4 look smart

This list makes no sense at all.

CopperLix

"according to CNBC [and publicly available data BYU doesn't normally release]"

Bob Vance

Mar 18, 6:08pm

And it appears they used conference affiliation from 3 years ago

Rexy Coug

Mar 18, 6:13pm

BYU files an EADA report with the Dept of Ed every year.

TSTTKB

Mar 18, 11:22pm

They are also entitled to (and do) withhold lots of the information associated with the athletics programs that

Bob Vance

He’s confusing prime’s brand with CUs

puntersarepeople

Mar 18, 6:09pm

I now have no respect for his business acumen.

byujdmba

Mar 18, 6:13pm

That’s not his rankings

SBB

Here is the article. Numbers are from 2023

Tare

Mar 18, 6:16pm

And based significantly on media revenue... BYU with only 1/2 share in 2023

Tysman Rap

Mar 18, 9:38pm

BYU was actually still independent in fiscal year 2023. Pre BIG12

Tare

Mar 19, 5:12pm

So lazy... and they adjusted the multiple based on conf affiliation

Tysman Rap

Mar 18, 9:49pm

That article was a joke when they released it.

slatecoug

Mar 18, 11:19pm

What a freaking joke.

SaintGeorgeYFan

Mar 18, 6:23pm

Numbers are backward looking. Poor analysis.

Revenge share will be huge for BYU in a few years.

I love the typo. Please keep it

puntersarepeople

Haha! Whoops…but I think I’ll leave it for the laughs.

BYUHgrad

Mar 18, 7:27pm

Huh? No NPV of future cash flows?

Hiccupless

Next and every year after BYU will be top of the conference in cash flow and

SinkingQuffa

Mar 18, 7:50pm

as long as deon is at colorado, colorado is 1. He puts eyes on the conference

here's to hoping

Mar 18, 8:11pm

I had doubts but was shocked to see CUs viewership numbers this year.

Cheap Seats

Colorado fans easily outnumbered BYU fans at the Bowl game. I spoke to many. Not

BigEasyCougar

This is a joke, right?

ABN RGR

They forgot to ask Yormark

Ray Shoesmith

Mar 18, 9:01pm

Kansas is clearly #1, so it's not worth reading after they got that wrong

MaxxPower

Arizona doesn’t even belong in the same ZIP Code as this list

Ten_Hour_Drives

Stupid.

LifeLongLakerFan

This has got to be engagement farming for BYU fans.

Resurgens

Mar 18, 9:28pm

That is nonsense! Just rating living alumni as a reach metric blows this out of the water. Utah isn’t even a bigger
