Via Dave Sez, another blogger, Braves & Birds, found a really good piece on the revenues and expenses for Division 1-A Athletic Departments. There is a list of all the schools from the 2003-04 season. The most important for us.

As B&B points out, a lot of schools are essentially taking huge hits because of the costs of the women’s programs without much revenue coming back. Definitely read the posts from both blogs.
