It's clear that college athletics is big business, but just how much money do athletic departments work with?
As it does annually, USA Today published over the weekend a database looking at the spending and revenue of each NCAA Division I public university athletic department for the 2014-2015 fiscal year.
Of local note, the University of Utah took in the 52nd most revenue of the 231 schools listed at $62,441,552 against $58,734,014 of expenses, while Southern Utah University was 203rd with revenue of $11,039,942 against expenses of $10,562,560.
