Ranking of School Revenues

[Catfanatic84]

The Murray gossip thread has grown tiresome....so I thought you might find this of interest. I always find the "We should move up to FBS" argument difficult to understand when you see the gap between the top schools compared to the Big Sky. Texas A&M raked in $194 million last year. There's no way we can compete against schools with those resources. I was surprised to see James Madison at #59. Griz clocked in at 128...Cats at 136.

The team by team breakdowns are really interesting. I'd hate to be a student at Sac State when you see the fees they pay. MSU can certainly improve in rights/licensing and contributions.

James Madison's student fees are $36 Million compared with $1.8 Million at MSU.

Remember that USA Today takes their info. from the publicly available reports on the Board of Regents site which have greater detail. https://mus.edu/data/Athletics/2016/default.asp

There is an item on the MSU statement that doesn't seem to belong. That item is not on the um statement.

I remember not that long ago the California university system had zero tuition for in-staters. No longer the case, but it doesn't appear Sac States fees are out of line.
Per Semester:

Tuition $2,763
Student Fees (9)
athletics 134.
transportation 19
recreation 13
university union 214
health facilities 16
hornet paper 3
other 125
Total Fees 588
Total Semester (6 units or more, in-state) $3,324

I was going by what's posted in the article. Sac State does have a lot more students than MSU, but according to this document, their money generated by student fees is considerably more per person than MSU.

Looking at those numbers and comparing to student enrollment.

um $2009 per student

MSU $1240 per student

How many of the Power 5 teams receive money for athletics from their respective states? Virtually all of their athletic departments are controlled by foundations--that is to say, nonprofits.

The quarterback from Eastern Washington two years ago left for Eugene to work on a master's in nonprofits.

Bowl revenue and Bowl expenses.
