[QUOTE="Gary's Shirtless Revenge, post: 3027250, member: 72515"] Wont go one by one but in general you have to keep in mind alumni+tshirt fans and thus potential eyeball counts, average ratings over recent history in key demos, competitiveness and commitment to football, and to a lesser degree basketball. What markets they are in or have fan “density” in helps, less so than years ago. KU would be premier 1C level if it had tried at all to invest in football over the years, but it couldn’t put anything together consistently. TCU suffers from eyeball and general interest deficiency, it’s just a fact. We’ve benefited from performance and surprising relevance given our size, but that only goes so far. CDC had a tell for years, when he’d gripe that we only had 40k alumni he could identify and email, and that many were graduating from Texas every few years. DFW helps, I’d rather be here than Waco or Lubbock, but only so much. [/QUOTE]
