I do believe the woman's program can generate a profit. Nebraska volleyball, LSU Gymnastics and Basketball, Oklahoma Softball, UCONN women's basketball all generate a lot of income. Some of the supposed over expense is calculating Stadium expenses. Oklahoma women's softball generates 4million plus UCONN women's basketball is over 12Mil, South Carolina real rev is over 13million against 11.5mil cost. There are a lot more. Think the FS1 contract is not nothing either. Previous Message the semantics of 3 major programs and bagging on women’s sports doesn’t interest me.
