And we spend over $4,000,000 for 1 win a year in football. But luckily we have a lot of high school all-conference players coming that will change the trajectory
It has to do with everything. We are dead last in basketball spending (albeit close to SIU and Illinois State). It's not like a Wichita or Creighton or Loyola is still in the conference and outspending every 2x-3x.

If it's a non revenue sport isn't it taking dollars away from basketball?It's considered a non-revenue sport. It has an expectation to lose money.
There are only 3 revenue sports at the majority of schools. Football and men's and women's basketball.
At power schools with legendary programs, baseball can make money. Hockey also falls into the sometimes category... again, only at the schools with legendary programs and followings.
