Message: [QUOTE="AZHuskiePop, post: 5040463, member: 1609"] The NC in what apparently is an incentive based system wouldn‘t be reflected until 2023-24 season and will be multiplied next year and with the second one success this year and it will rise again It looks like the original Big East contract was $4,000,000 per team It also looks like the Big East got a kick up as an incentive to add UConn.. My guess was adding us was more about open purses than open hearts . Based on those numbers even if I back out Fox’s $6,000,000 bonus.with an unspecified destination I’m guessing UConn’s badketball revenue will be $13,000,000 minimum .and rising . Numbers that undervalue our Basketball worth by $4,000,000 to $8,000,000 depending on the conference For example using low estimates in the B1G 15% of $80,000 + NCAA revenue plus Ticket sales for men an women we’re in excess of $20,000,000 If I were UConn I would be shopping us as a basketball only to a major conference. , If for no other reason than leverage on the Big East..,If you really think about that’s exactly what our image is. Louisville numbers are really interesting Although they’ve lost about $2,000,000 or more vs those numbers last year their revenue is still amazing. Their budget is $136,000,000 ., The two things i noticed is Louisville more evenly accounts for media revenue between football ( which loses money) and basketball plus they have an outside source that contributes to basketball specifically. So accounting methodology can paint a different picture. The Yum center is also an advantage when they’re good.. [/QUOTE]
