That is enough to buy out Lick, buyout Tenn for Pearl, and pay Pearl his first year at $2.5 million. Then the increase in ticket sales will bring this right back up in 2 years tops.

Is the practice facility in this equation? Along with the Carver renovations?
 
Fascinating. Thanks. I like your unicorn, btw.

Interestingly, Iowa was 10mil in the black. ISU was about dead even at 38mil in and 38 mil out (much smaller overall budget than Iowa).

I looked up thee OSU, and noted that their program is huge, something like 115m in rev (versus Iowa's eightysomething mil). However, it appears that in that specific year, Iowa had a better overall margin. Very interesting to compare schools.
 
Well, I believe.

Dang, I looked at all three years, and Iowa has a pretty consistent margin.

It sure doesn't hurt that football is doing well these days. Now, let's get that basketball thing going again...
