WOW those numbers are truly astounding...
Median D-I MEN'S athletic Dept. Revenue produced per year = $22.2 Million
Median D-I WOMEN'S athletic Dept. Revenue produced per yr = $0.86 Million
and then...
there are..."492 more women's programs than men's in Division I, according to the latest data"
yet the lawsuits fly, almost exclusively aimed at universities who are being sued because they don't spend enough or have enough for the women! -
Another ESPN article about most schools cutting back on budgets. A few, like Indiana and Kentucky, still "spare no expense in their recruiting efforts."-
