note this line "the athletic department is responsible for RAISING all necessary funds"
You don't "raise" tuition funds - so it seems clear that we aren't receiving any funds from any church or school accounts.

"Welcome to the Cougar Club
The Cougar Club is the official booster organization for BYU Athletics. Although BYU is sponsored by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, the Athletic Department receives no funding from the church. No tithing or tax dollars are used for BYU Athletics. The Athletic Department is responsible for raising all necessary funds to run the department, including, but not limited to: student-athlete scholarships, coaching salaries, as well as facility and program costs for each of BYU's 21 team sports."
