For the same year 2015-16, Pitt's athletic revenues were $56,324,373.
That is less than UConn, Cincy, UCF, and San Diego State, and dead last among public power conference schools.
So how realistic is Pitt's $56M and UCONN's $79M now? Are they still comparable to two years ago? And if not, why not? Saw someone mentioned UCONN's revenues have dropped as they've gotten further away from being in Big East?
There's also the broader issue of UCONN being in serious financial trouble as an overall institution. UCONN Health and UCONN both are reported to be in pretty dire straits.
