Most Valuable CBB Programs
Sadly the Big East's premier program is nowhere to be seen

If the Big East ever goes to an 18 team model we would be nuts not to look at Xavier. Although I'm sure Cincy and even Louisville might not support it.

RE: Most Valuable CBB Programs
UofL has slipped, as we were #1 for several years. We'll likely be back at #1 next year with the new arena opening, especially since #2 UK was only $200,000 ahead. An extra 2,500 seats for 16-18 home games will be a nice boost, not to mention the new luxury box income.

Actually you'll have to wait 2 years...pretty sure they use last year's money.

That makes sense. Maybe we'll pass UK next year, since these numbers were close and they included extra UK revenue from their 2009 NIT home game last season! 03-lmfao

LOL. Considering UCONN generated $14M+ in men's program and $12M+ in women's program in 2008, I have no idea where they came up with that ranking or what criteria they used.

State of CT must used some creative accounting. I know they pretty much deduct everything to get profit of zero. With both men's and women's program together, there is not one program in the country can match the Huskies in that department.

UCONN is the highest revenue producing athletic program in the BE yearly and it is not due to football.

RE: Most Valuable CBB Programs
I have to question this some that too when they list Ohio State's basketball as higher on the list than football. OSU is 2nd in the nation sports revenue only behind Texas and OSU is not a basketball school. I'm not saying the numbers they use are wrong, but I suspect this is not an exact science and maybe each school categorizes where revenue comes from differently.

Cincy is the reason XU is not in the Big East we told then to take Depaul back in the formation of the new Big East ...Thank God! No way UC allows XU in unless Football breaks away in the future.

UC would be dead set against XU joining the league and for good reason. IMO, a large portion of the budgetary problems in UC's athletic department stem from the recent decline in UC hoops. The last thing UC needs right now would be a legitimized (i.e. gaining power conference membership) XU program stealing sponsors/fans in their backyard.

Louisville probably wouldn't be too harshly opposed to the addition. XU wouldn't add any significant competition for UofL (they are already outcompeted by ND, UK, OSU, UC, Bengals, Reds, high school football in the Cincy market), but it would add a short road trip for minor sports.
