Check out our article on comparing revenues and expenses in the AQ conferences.
This really shows the reality of the situation and the importance of the AAC gaining stature
and Aresco, renegotiating a better TV deal. Although I believe the AAC conference has potential,
unless they take in a lot more money, going to B1G or ACC is an economic necessity. UCONN takes in
over 60 million per year, not including the Big East money.

This illustrates the revenues of the top 5 conferences and the AAC
Conferences – By highest total average revenue
ConferenceAverage Total RevenueAverage Total ExpenseAverage Football Expense
Big 10 Conference$86,423,474$78,717,221$20,630,720
Big 12 Conference$82,727,759$75,680,959$19,765,214
SEC Conference$80,859,162$76,362,188$18,982,916
Pac 12 Conference$67,793,292$66,286,549$18,934,897
Atlantic Coast Conference$65,437,575$68,434,818$19,447,062
American Athletic Conference$39,845,559$39,675,640$12,062,451
Also the coaches pay at UCONN ranks 5th in the Country in head coaches pay. Gino adds a dimension to that.
