From the article:
“According to a database operated by the Knight Foundation, [SDSU athletics] ran a $1.35 million deficit in 2022 while receiving 73 percent of its “revenue” from tax dollars, student fees or donations.
And this is a team considered ready for a P5 call up?
Yikes.
When nearly 3/4 of your revenue is subsidized by the university and taxpayers, there’s clearly not much fan support.
The fact that SDSU is the PAC 12’s first choice expansion candidate tells you where they are as a conference.
