And also got paid over 1 mil to play TCU.

They got a bigger BCS distribution in the MWC (1mil vs 100k) and got 1.3 from the MTN

So in guessing TV revenue, maybe 6-7 mil from ESPN for 6 televised games.

Are the new numbers up?

Gross Revenue was up $8 million for our first year in Indy football

BYUMizzou

12/3/12 7:01am

But Ute fans all tell me BYU made less than $4M from the ESPN deal.

How much would USC make if they could dump off Utah?

The Pac needed two warm bodies to get a CCG

Ute fans closer than BYU fans

thanks--I'll update the original post

On the expense side, Dave Rose got an additional $900K to spend last year

BYUMizzou

12/3/12 7:10am

some of that $ may have gone into stadium/MC enhancements

inertiaman

12/3/12 7:11am

On second thought, those expenses weren't incurred until the summer of 2012

BYUMizzou

12/3/12 7:15am

They remodeled some besides the stadiums

For fun check out the UofU stats at that website

Yewts made 20.7M for FB in their first year in the PAC. $1.7M less than BYU did

BYUMizzou

12/3/12 7:14am

For comparision, last year Utah reported $14.6M in FB revenue

BYUMizzou

12/3/12 7:41am

It will be interesting to see what happens to ticket sales next year

SPgoofyft

12/3/12 7:43am

Last two games both sold out. The empty seats you saw were in the SS, because

NarfUte

12/3/12 8:19am

Hmm, that's not what I saw

SPgoofyft

12/3/12 6:23pm

Utah made 20.7MM with only CCG and bowl revenue

Winning this battle, will lose the war.

Blue Oyster Cult

12/3/12 7:15am

yep - in 1 or 2 years they will make significantly more $ than BYU FB

inertiaman

12/3/12 7:16am

Not if BYU can join a big conference.

Blugar

12/3/12 7:22am

Utah received 50% share this year. Next year will

Regal Ute

BYU had 1 more home game than the year before

Blue Oyster Cult

12/3/12 7:11am

That's why the game day expenses are significantly higher than the year before

BYUMizzou

12/3/12 7:12am

good point on the home game and TCU - added to original post

Not included in the numbers being discussed...

BaYoU

12/3/12 7:17am

Good point.

BYUMizzou

12/3/12 7:20am

Any idea how the BYUtv #s are shaping up?

inertiaman

12/3/12 7:24am

I've heard that...

Like the update, one other note

Blue Oyster Cult

12/3/12 7:29am

You also have to subtract the $1M or so they were getting from the MWC contract

BYUMizzou

12/3/12 7:32am

So basically FB keeps all schools in the black

Unless you're Gonzaga, then Basketball carries the load

BYUMizzou

12/3/12 7:48am

Or Duke, where their BB program actually generates more revenue than FB

BYUMizzou

12/3/12 7:49am

Wow, that's insane for BB. Good for them.

mellomike

12/3/12 7:54am

With their tiny stadium?

Blue Oyster Cult

12/3/12 8:11am

Somewhat. Their ticket prices are off the charts--same with Gonzaga.

how does the US department of education know about private school's finances?

I may be naive here, but I don't think

cougarmanguy

This is basically to make sure they are complying with Title IX.

HammerBlue

12/3/12 10:55am

no doubt they do- no argument there. Still skeptical at these numbers though

cougarmanguy

12/3/12 11:01am

If BYU fudges the numbers, they would get in serious trouble.

HammerBlue

12/3/12 11:13am

? I never suggested BYU lied about their numbers

cougarmanguy

12/3/12 11:19am

Then what is there to be skeptical about? I guess I don't understand what you're

HammerBlue

12/3/12 11:34am

Thread is gone on awfully long for a comment made off hand. No worries.

cougarmanguy

12/3/12 11:51am

LOL, yeah I agree. I really wasn't trying to attack or be a pain ...

HammerBlue

12/4/12 9:51am

no misunderstandings here at all

cougarmanguy

Exactly right
