No it isn’t. It a demonstration of what having an NFL team playing in the shadow of your stadium can do to dilute your fan base.For the 16th largest MSA being ranked 25th behind several schools on that list is an indictment of past football and Uof M leadership failures.
Cal, Michigan State, UCLA are schools ranked higher that I would say Minnesota is as good or better than as a job (especially when weighing expectations vs reality)
So a college with a pro football team in town makes the college football in that town less attractive to a national audience, ESPN or Fox? Of the 50 variables in the study I’d guess a pro sports team in town was not one of the 50 or at least well down the list.No it isn’t.

The University of Houston must be pissed.For the 16th largest MSA being ranked 25th behind several schools on that list is an indictment of past football and Uof M leadership failures.
