I'd bet that all sports except Football run a true deficit
In a few years I can see our Basketball getting in the black if Pearl hangs around

I'd guess men's basketball and baseball may turn a profit, but football is the only true moneymaker.

They had a recent breakdown by sport, but I cant find it. As I recall this is true except there are a few small sports that pretty much break even or make a minor profit. Basketball should have a minor profit soon as well

In '11-'12 three sports made money, football, baseball, and gymnastics.

Football is the only thing making money at most every SEC school, outside of Kentucky.
I will let you know what I find out. Being a contractor, I have good friends who are the engineers for many AU projects. I have been inside the video board, and it is impressive, no matter what your opinion is of its existence.
ETA: There are odd years where other sports profit. As a rule however, football is king.
