How are you surprised by tu making money? They are the football team of one of the largest schools in our state. They have won a National Title in recent history and bring in money.

Thank God for that SEC money, right Ags? Doesn't look like the flagship football program has enough "oomph" to carry the rest of the load.

Nope. /ole missfistofsouth said:
Let's see expenditures please.
But we are in the SEC. I don't understand what your hypothetical does? We are in the SEC. We have the rights to all that entails, including the revenue. It isn't like we are being enriched unjustly. Further, millions, upon millions, upon millions of more people watch our football program, sucktitude and all, than yours and anyone else in the Big 12 over the past five years. What gives? They are tuning into us specifically, we are at least 50% of the equation when they tune in. And you are at least 50% of the equation when they tune out.etexorange said:
Hence, without the SEC paying your bills, you'd be in a world of hurt because your football program doesn't bring in mounds of cash based on Aggie merchandise being sold, advertising and radio contracts, and stuff like that based on "Texas A&M" rather than "SEC."

Why anyone would look at total revenue only, and not the expenses underneath, is beyond me. It is lunacy. Not surprised ole etexorange showed up to spike the football either. It is well known that the sips also have the most expenses, and it isn't close. They have very, very little cash flow and have been slow to react over the past half decade to anything innovative because of this low amount of cash flow.

Still very wrong. Their AD expenditures are not included in that figure. Nor are ours. The Texas AD has redundant positions for male and female athletics which leads to more six figure jobs than any program in America, and it isn't close. They spend money like affluent *****er kids.NoahAg said:Well, if you read all the way to the bottom, it does say:Bonfire 1996 said:

I know that your dumbass is trying to infer the fact that we don't provide anything to the SEC and only benefit from the other programs. However, there wouldn't be an SECN if it weren't for us. You may now go crawl back into your hole.etexorange said:
"3 programs in the dumpster fire 12 made the list. Meanwhile said list was littered with SEC programs "
Ahh, I see you didn't understand my comment.
The football program at every college pays the bills for the other sports, in general, and $73 million for A&M's football program doesn't really leave much money to spread around.
Hence, without the SEC paying your bills, you'd be in a world of hurt because your football program doesn't bring in mounds of cash based on Aggie merchandise being sold, advertising and radio contracts, and stuff like that based on "Texas A&M" rather than "SEC."
100-year decision and all?

2. Texas Longhorns
Total Revenue: $183,521,028
Total Expenses: $173,248,133
In regard to money generated by athletic departments, the Texas Longhorns are accustomed to finishing in the top position. However, in 2015, all this university did was lead the land in total expenses just over $173.2 million. Yet, there is no shame in coming in second place here, especially if that means the school brought in roughly $183.5 million.
Texas made $63.3 million in ticket sales, $44.3 million from contributions, $62.9 from rights/licensing, and $13.1 million from other areas. With this amount of money in the athletic department war chest, we don't see any reason why the Texas Longhorns won't hook their opponents in the near future.

1. Texas A&M Aggies
Total Revenue: $192,608,876
Total Expenses: $109,313,651
We guess it's true what they say: Everything is bigger in Texas.
Of course, this time around it's Texas A&M doing the heavy lifting. In 2015, the Aggies' athletic department proved to be the wealthiest in the land, pulling in a whopping $192,608,876. That's what happens when you generate $45.8 million from ticket sales, $92.1 million from contributions, $47 million from rights/licensing, and $7.7 million from other areas. For head football coach Kevin Sumlin, with a ton of bank at his disposal, we guess there's only one thing left to do: win.
For being a self-described financial guru, you really don't know what you're talking about.Quote:
Put it this way. The programs in the B1G and the SEC have positive cash flows, after expenses, of over $10 Million annually, some are over $20 Million. Texas is barely breaking even, and has lost money 2 out of the last 3 years.

all that money and they go 5-7 repeatedly and still can't money whip coaches to coach there.
I guess the top brass knows they don't need to win to keep making money (which sadly applies to us as well).
