What do we make? I always figured around a million, which is more than we are getting paid.

you gotta define "we", or we won't know what you are after.

You either need to work harder, or work differently.
The $650 M number was for the University. Recognize all concessions revenue goes to the food service, all gear sales goes to the bookstore, etc. The AD also has an operations bill to the U for home games. He said he had to have the $650 M number for a body bag road game to beat out a DII home game. In your case, he well could be averaging home and homes with some makeup for travel expenses. Those aren't DII's.BWahlberg said:kemajic said:O'Day used to throw out a number of $650 M as home game return when comparing to a body bag road game.

When I was on the GSA board Jim would come talk to us and point out that most home games would net athletics after costs. I always thought he would say around $350,000 to $400,000... but granted that was 8 to 10 years ago too.

I agree...smarter doesn't seem to be cutting the mustard.
