when we get money from wherever, does the mens bball team get a big portion, then football, then the other sports.

mary anne fox took all the $$$$$$$ when she left

2/14/2008 11:35:05 PM

Lee Fowler gets most of it because of the amazing job he is doing.

2/14/2008 11:37:40 PM

I would assume football brings in the most money and costs the most money.

2/14/2008 11:41:15 PM

i would assume football is our biggest moneymaker but i am not completely sure

bball is on TV a lot more just b/c of the quantity of games in a season but ticket sales are obviously football as are most other things b/c of crowd size

women's basketball operates in the black?

really?

2/15/2008 12:15:14 AM

^lol.

our terrible underachieving sports teams are not worth 42 million dollars.

2/15/2008 12:17:30 AM

i guess this isn't profit.

i'm curious as to how much our women's basketball team loses every year.

no but it is grand total revenues brought in from the athletic programs and that is what i was referring to.

our crappy sports teams are not worth 42 million dollars in revenues

2/15/2008 12:28:14 AM

Well being that revenue means the amount you take in before deducting expenses.. then yes, this is not profit.

2/15/2008 12:30:05 AM

Womens basketball is the third leading revenue sport in the country. Everyone knows that.

2/15/2008 12:55:34 AM

$42 million dollar bucks?!?!?

2/15/2008 1:58:00 AM

football is pretty much the only money-making college sport, nationwide

only a few programs, say Duke, UNC, Kentucky, UCLA, actually make money from their basketball program.

2/15/2008 2:04:11 AM

^and us

we actually have one of the higher profit margins from basketball in the country (mostly due to remarkably low expenditures).

Football makes a ton of money, but they also spend an incredible amount. When I was researching a paper on Title IX back in the late-90's, i think the figure I found was that the average D1 Football program lost ~$600k/year
Don't know if that's still accurate, but it's certainly still true that you can't assume that just because a team or program brings in a lot of money, they actually make money

2/15/2008 8:08:23 AM

I wonder if that chart includes donations to teams/programs/athletic department. Only reason I bring that up is I am trying to figure out how the women's programs (non basketball) bring in 1.7 million.

2/15/2008 8:13:36 AM

2/15/2008 8:24:18 AM

well im just saying. that money is going to waste. maybe we can start a womens football team

2/15/2008 9:38:50 AM

Well Title IX means you can't just have football and basketball teams and call it a day, or just men's sports for that matter.

2/15/2008 9:43:53 AM

^^ so they can perform below expectations too?
