Can you shows us where schools profit off sports?
Because schools are ALL losing a ton of money off sports.
I want to see where you come up with that.
Texas and Michigan are losing a buttload of money on sports. UConn is too.
College sports are mainly a taxpayer supported enterprise.
This is just so silly. Big schools don't make money on sports BECAUSE THEY CHOOSE NOT TO.
Ohio State's athletic department has more employees than the White House.
Connecticut, Boston College and Rutgers play in different leagues, with teams in Miami, Lincoln and Dallas.
The highest paid state employee in Connecticut coaches women's basketball.
It's idiotic for UConn to play a school in Tampa in sports no one watches. A volleyball team in the Northeast should never need anything beyond a 3 hour bus ride.
Recruit players that can do the school work and suddenly you don't need an academic staff of a dozen.
Nobody needs an SID for football and another SID for basketball.
Nobody needs to win awards for their media guide.
Nobody needs a Heisman campaign in Times Square.
Nobody needs to send the friggin band to the women's big east basketball tournament to play in front of 275 people.
So cut the crap about school's not making money. It's a choice.
