Only 7 public schools have unsubsidized athletics

From http://www.usatoday.com/sports/college/story/2012-05-14/ncaa-college-athletics-finances-database/54955804/1

They are:
LSU
Nebraska
Ohio State
Oklahoma
Penn State
Purdue
Texas

Note that even Michigan, Iowa, Tennessee, Oregon, UCLA, Florida, Clemson, Georgia Tech, Florida State, Oklahoma State, Wisconsin, Washington, Arizona, Georgia, Alabama, and so on are subsidized.

Since many BYU fans are not from Utah, there should be petitions all over calling for an end to athletics subsidies, right?
