[QUOTE="slugboy, post: 817109, member: 282"] This might help, but it may lean more to football than it entirely should: [URL]https://www.bannersociety.com/2020/4/8/21211241/college-athletic-budgets-football[/URL] You could argue (and they do) that even Kansas makes more from Football than Basketball. Duke has a healthier athletic budget than we do, because of basketball, and there are other schools that also do that. Clemson has really neglected their basketball program and has all their eggs in the “football” basket, and it’s worked for them. It’s a bad analogy, but from a financial point of view, I think of football as the burger and basketball as the fries. Basketball is good money, but it’s secondary to football. Having both is better than having one. Tech would be a lot better off financially if our basketball program had never gone through a dry spell. But if we’d kept a mid-O’Leary-era football team over the last 20 years, we’d be killing it right now. [/QUOTE]
