Message: [QUOTE="CL82, post: 5028876, member: 44"] I found the same article. I'd rather see the actual financials because the way they parse the numbers isn't particularly useful. For the time being let's use the $30 million institutional support number as a proxy for athletic department losses even if you were to eliminate the $14 million football deficit, that would be a $16 million remaining loss. So no, if we eliminated football the athletic department would not be running at breakeven and certainly not at a surplus. Solvency is a measure of assets versus liabilities which isn't particularly relevant to your hypothetical. I think it's important to address the mythology that somehow football is putting the athletic department into the red. It's not. [/QUOTE]
