I doubt it... you may have been near breaking even, but very few schools even cover their expenses. Hell Ohio State's AD is bleeding money.



We make a lot of money on football. We make a lot of money on basketball. We are one of the few schools in the country that make money on baseball (typically).

We don't have that many money-losing programs compared to other schools, and we have practically no debt.

...and, the athletic department just donated $1 million to the university, just because.

Arkansas' AD makes money.

Yeah, I'm not sure how many of our sports actually make money(I know football does and I'm assuming men's basketball), but I know we've got to lose a lot. I mean, Ohio State has 36 Varsity Sports. The next closest to that is Michigan with 25(then Texas and UF with 20 each).

No way we're making money on most of it.
