Look at the number of sports at universities; from NAIA, JUCO and all the NCAA divisions. It is a myth that any churn out a tangible profit, since there is creative bookeeping at work…for example, stadium maintenance is typically not built into the football budget, but spun off into another department and most programs lose money going to Bowl games due to sharing the payout with other conference members

Any school that fields a football team gets most of their sports-revenue from that team. Football usually pays for the other sports, as they bring in little to nothing in revenue. Football is king in America.
