Interesting Chart

AD revenue vs student funding.

UConn does not come out nearly as bad as I thought it would here.

We're $35mil in the red yearly. That's bad.

What I want to know is why are some of these P5 athletic departments, with the boatloads of money they have coming in, taxing their students to the extent that they are?

Because they are good at making money.

How is Rutgers subsidizing through students worse than we are? I thought they were printing money in the Big10.

They haven't gotten there full share yet... and because they are Rutgers.

There are some differences in use of the monies that is not captured by a chart...

On what the dollars captured on the chart may go for...some may go to support scholarship supported teams....and some is captured but supports other student activities.

For instance...at FSU, the university puts no money directly into the Athletic Department.

The students ARE assessed an Athletic Activity fee......this fee covers free tickets to football and basketball games (which does support the AD just as it would if the students purchased them directly), but it also supports a large menu of intramural athletic activities (including intramural sports fields including 25 sports fields for flag football, rec soccer, rugby, lacrosse..etc..and five softball fields), and student athletic amenities....gyms, olympic weight lifting facility, indoor basketball courts, racquetball courts, a tennis complex, swimming pools, bowling alley, golf course, etc

I think that a good portion of student activity fee monies, listed for schools on these charts as supporting "Athletics", probably does not go to the support of varsity teams.

I believe this is correct and applies to UConn as well.
