UK FOOTBALL:

That is a tremendous profit for a program that last season did not even make a Bowl game. UK basketball, the most successful program in America, doesnât even generate such a profit:
UK BASKETBALL:
Revenue: $20.8 million
Expenses: $12.6 million
Profit: $8.2 million
Every other sport besides these two lose money at Kentucky. And it is thus clear that Kentuckyâs Athletics program as a whole requires significant revenue generated by football. But how much of that money generated is invested back in the program? Johns goes on to look at the increase in money generated by UK football over the last 4 years:
UK FOOTBALL REVENUE:
2008-2009: $20 million
2012-2013: $29.6 million
Football is a cash cow for the rest of the atletic department. They turn a massive profit while sucking so why would they invest anything in it. UK doesn't care about football, this has been true for a long time it isn't jokers fault that he doesn't have the tools to suceed. No one could at UK without a major attitude change in the program.
