We did an analysis of the reported football income and profits from the 2014-2015 football season and found some pretty staggering facts about just how much is being earned on the business of college ball.

Some key findings:

  • The top 100 football programs (by earnings) generated nearly $5.6 billion in combined revenue
  • University of Texas (Austin) reported the highest earnings: $121 million
  • UT reported that of that $121 million, $91 million was profit–a 75% margin
  • Almost $1 million in profit was earned per player on the UT roster
  • UT’s $91 million in profit was higher than the 2015 operating income of 25 out of 32 NFL teams
  • 22 NCAA teams reported profits higher than the operating income of the lowest-earning NFL team, the Atlanta Falcons
