That all makes sense to me.
It would seem weird to me if they weren't making money on it all.
Thanks!

Based on Equity in Athletics -- BYU 2013 revenue = $60.1M, expenses = $53.5M

Spend the money on great coaching and reduce the likelihood of losing seasons

You may be right, but we're talking about a financially conservative school and

Is that why they pumped and continue to pump millions into BYUTV?

Do you really view BYU-TV as some kind of big financial risk?
Bostonblue

Do you think BYUTV is a major expense for BYU?

You didn't answer my question. In any event, I'll answer yours.

To make more money they need to spend it on coaching.

Not sure about infrastructure, but I read in the NYT that Granite Flats costs

its only not cheap depending on what the revenue is per show.

So we have $6.6 million or so from which to pay the athletes

BYU's athletic department operates in the black.

So it is athletic, huh?

As opposed to deceptively fast.

Is there a fund or line of credit BYU athletics use when they do go red?
ToasterChive
4/24/15 12:11pm
I'm not sure. I believe the fund is the Athletic Department's

No red, they go "white"...

The Church won't let them run in the red

BYU athletics makes more money that they spend. Very unusual, even for P5

Wonder what the surplus funds are used for?
bretonnia
4/24/15 12:29pm
I imagine a lot of it is banked to guard against lean years or unexpected costs.
CalGTR
4/24/15 12:35pm
If that's the case, I'd be VERY interested to see BYU ADs bank statement.
bretonnia
4/24/15 12:39pm
More likely the bulk of it is earmarked for for future planned costs...

The surplus is set aside for 1) rainy day, 2) anticipation of paying stipends

They operate in the double minority: Non-P5/in the black
