"An analysis of college football spending from 2014-18 published by AthleticDirectorU.com found that KU, by far, had the highest cost per win average, at $10,740,347.
That figure came in at nearly $4 million more than the No. 2 program on the list, Arkansas ($6.79 million). Some other Power Five programs that recently have fallen on hard times Rutgers ($6.49 million) and Oregon State ($6.27 million) rounded out the top four.
Much of the top 10 featured high profile programs that have lofty standards No. 5 Texas ($5.69 million), No. 6 Florida State ($5.52 million), No. 8 Nebraska ($5.43 million) and No. 10 Auburn ($5.27 million)."

Flip side is KU and t.u. get to spread the cost of losing over a much larger number of games.
That's just smart money management

Math says that as their wins approach zero then their costs/win should always approach infinity anyways. Someone remind me again why they fired Mangino? Didn't he say mean things or something like that?

Honestly I am surprised at the list. Even if a school wins a lot of games, some schools are spending massive amounts on football.
Hell, Alabama has a who's who of coaches on staff and a recruiting department that is deep and well paid. The fact that t.u. is in the top ten is extra embarrassing. Spending all that money for so long and have nothing of value to show for it.
