This was in 2024 alone. Now I ask, if OSU lost 37.7 million after winning a NC, how are any schools that are not considered blue bloods/upper echelon going to continue to field any teams losing that kind of money.
Ohio St Athletics Dept lost nearly 39 million
- Thread starter Harvard Gamecock
- Start date
Musk needs to take a look at those books for waste and fraud
It's obvious the money game has ruined college athletics.
The NIL money didn't come from the athletic budget, so i have to wonder what killed them so badly.
Well, from the article:
However, Ohio State's deficit is at least partially a result of a $14.6 million decline in ticket revenue that resulted from the Buckeyes having six home football games during the 2023 season after having eight in the 2022 season, and from more $8.5 million in severance costs connected to the school’s firing of men’s basketball head coach Chris Holtmann in February 2024.
