We interrupt the Ernie Kent news cycle to bring you some interesting football news: The U.S. Department of Education released FY2018 revenue numbers, and during the 2017 season (the most recent numbers), your Washington State Cougars brought in $41.7 million and turned a $21.7 million profit. Cha-ching!
That number was good for 45th out of 65 power 5 teams (plus Notre Dame). Washington State was 9th among Pac-12 teams, ahead of UCLA, Oregon State and Cal. The Washington Huskies were tops in the Pac-12, bringing in $81.1 million and $42.4 million in profit.
