The next article is due next week. Food for thought.

Hey Ox, I tried to drop in the top ten of each list and it said I exceeded the maximum number of characters. You are currently at 170177 or something. Oops.

UF's value to me is infinite. It provided me with a good education and some experiences that have lasted a lifetime. It also provided each of my three children the same. It continues to provide entertainment and pride of accomplishments for all our sports teams and of course the academic achievements of our students and graduates.

Now from a practical point of view the valuation is a result of the assumptions used and does not include intangibles very well.

True story but I think they are only talking about the value of the football team alone.

The question was team not school.

Looks good for the SEC with 12 teams in the top 50 and 5 of the top 10. It surprised me to see South Carolina being that far up there and Kentucky being 37. UK is lucky to win 6 games a year and USC has only been good the last few years. It is also interesting the Florida has played 8 of the top 11 (counting ourselves) the last few years. I also finding it amazing that between 2 and 3 there is over a $100 difference.

I thought the football program was hemorrhaging money because of Foley hiring Will Muschamp? Looks like we're the most valuable football team in the SEC.

The last report said we'd lost 14 million in a year and projected another big loss. I'm not sure what the "value" of the program is. Actual income is easier to count.

Accountants going to account.

I take it you have enjoyed all the extra room from the empty seats in the stadium.

Well according to those links, the team was worth $60M more at the beginning of 2014 than it was at the beginning of 2013. I don't know how much of that you can attribute to inflation or bad accounting, but that's a pretty nice increase if you ask me.

Yeah that's one reason Sasquatch loved Muschamp so much. He's a big guy, and the last couple of years he's been able to stretch out and put his feet up on the two rows in front of him.

Well that's because SQ's parents don't go to many games anymore and their tickets are in front of ours. :banana:
