Would ISU receive any monies from playoff pool (TexTech), or B12 bowl games??
Someone correct me if I am wrong on the below
Yes, ISU will receive CFP & Big12 Bowl revenue (but remember ISU has to pay a $500k fine for declining to play). Those sources existed before the House Settlement, so most likely they have been historically counted on to pay Athletic Department expenses that likely aren't going away (aka coach salaries, scholarship costs, facility costs, travel costs, etc.)
The House Settlement ($22M+ All Sports to pay players) is an expense line item within ISU's athletic department budget. At Iowa State that $22M+ is being paid for with We Will Donations plus monies ISU Athletic Department has in reserves.
But at some point, ISU reserves will run out. So that's why it is important for ISU (and all Big12 Schools) to find additional revenue sources. Whether that is CyTown, Student Fee Increases, Ticket Price Increases, Incremental Donations, Private Equity Money, etc.
Since TT got a bye the conference will be getting $8 million, TT also gets $3 million for expenses for the bowl game itself. Bowl games would also be split up. Its was never reported that ISU and KSU had forfeited their share of bowl revenue from the other school, so they should get their cut as usual.
How Much Will Each Conference Get in CFP Payouts?
The 12-team CFP field is set, delivering big payouts for the SEC and Big Ten while leaving Notre Dame out—and out millions.

The tweet had too many A's and not enough C's.
I assume that it is due to them being 5-7 and only being asked as a result of Iowa State, K-State etc. rejecting their offers to play in a bowl game.
That is very different then being 8-4 & 6-6 and qualifying based on overall finish and rejecting the bid.
Yeah, you actually did say they did. Don't use absolutes if you don't want to be called out on them.
As has been mentioned, you don't know how the bowl vote went down exactly. Just because 'sources' say the assistants were willing to coach doesn't mean they were - certainly not all. Not sure we would have even had a starting defensive backfield, not to mention all the other guys transferring who wouldn't have been available.
I would have preferred a bowl, too, but ******** about it will help absolutely nothing.
By eye to eye, you mean can't give him money bags like other programs can. that's all any of the coaches leaving has ever come down to.
I had heard that not many coaches were going to stick around either.
Well done.
I couple minor suggested tweaks based upon my understanding:
Most B12 schools need to fine additional $, not all. BYU for example has plenty already.
I believe, as you stated, the $22M is a line item in the budget. I believe that is in the general fund pool of costs, funded by all income sources. We will $ might only be usable for that line item, I do not know.
An additional revenue source worth mentioning is State funding. It will never happen in Iowa, but some states are providing $ so their teams can compete: examples Louisiana and Virginia.
They AAC rebranded as the American Conference due to confusion.
Yes, you said that they did.
"EVERY OTHER ******* school that loses a coach manage to make the bowl?"
Turns out, KSU saying no as well means that NOT every other school chose to go to a bowl.
There never should have been a vote.
It should not have been an option.
Does your boss let his employees vote whether they want to do their job?
The players and coaches, have obligations to fulfill, the University and AD have obligations to fulfill.
The idea of not playing should not have even been an option, you say well we need to figure out how to make it work, and get it done, we need to finish what we started, and finish the season, and fulfill the obligations to each other, to the team, to the University, to the Conference, to the fans, etc etc.
There were coaches willing to coach, it has been widely reported as such, whether you stick you head in the sand and believe it or not. And as far as that goes getting back to business and working and preparing may have been beneficial in many ways.
But yeah keep coming up with excuses.
Isn't he going to be an advisor for the defense at PSU? Which would allow him to step away from the day to day coaching of the defense, to more of a part time roll, watching film, throwing out ideas and still allow him to retire and spend more time on other things.
