Message: [QUOTE="Padutch5, post: 5028854, member: 3528"] I dont think anyone outside of UCONN itself really knows what the true financial picture of UCONN sports is. Yes UCONN pays an exorbitant amount to use the XL center, but it really is like an inter company expense. That amount goes from UCONN to the state of Ct that also happens to own UCONN. I have no idea what these numbers use for the cost of athletic scholarships. Is it the advertised cost of tuition, room and board or is it the average tuition rate actually paid by students which is more like 60% of the advertised rate across all schools? it is widely believe that athletic success [like national championships] translates into increased applications. Colleges across the Northeast are experience a decline in applications while UCONN is experiencing a significant increase. How does this translate into the numbers used in these analyses? [/QUOTE]
