Message: [QUOTE="Palatine, post: 2988903, member: 974"] The real numbers are a bigger secret than the recipe for Kentucky Fried Chicken. Here's what we know, football costs about $15 million a year. Total. We make about $5 million in ticket sales. $2-$3 million in student fees go to the program. The rest is speculation. There are broadcast rights that can come through the NCAA, the conference or direct to UConn payments. Individual Contributions/Donations to the program. Corporate Sponsors. Merchandise Sales. Royalties. Licenses. Sports Camps. Stadium Advertising, Programs and Concessions. I may have missed something or everything. There is overlap of these revenue streams and they can be counted various ways. Shortfall has to be covered by the university. For those interested in the bigger picture here is the UConn Foundation 2018 Endowment Report.
