BSU gets more subsidy than most MAC schools
This means we generally produce less revenue than other mid major schools.
The bad news for the MAC is that athletic budgets are among the smallest for FBS schools. Only one conference has smaller budgets.
Our numbers may be closer to IUPUI or ISU than to major colleges, even some in the middle of the pack, and a world away from the Power 5.
Return to better basketball might bring our revenues up to the middle or higher of the MAC, but we may just not be able to become a true mid major in overall athletic funding without bringing in some significantly greater revenue in football.
