Both enlightening and depressing.

We all know collegiate athletic programs are really businesses. But no PPP loans for these businesses, obviously.

And most harmful, no TV revenue. We can put sufficient butts in a stadium or an arena to pay for a program, but not enough in couches to qualify for the big TV money--money the Power 5 has stolen anyway. Our achilles heel.
