are you seriously questioning this? do you think the merchandise and concessions at the box make up for the huge part of basketball's tv deal?
Do you seriously think LSU gets the TV deal all to itself??? It's split up amongst all of the SEC, and exactly how many times was the basketball team on national TV this year? About 5 right?
Baseball team has already been on ESPNu twice(will make it a third time Friday) and then you have the potential super regional and CWS broadcasts.

so far I can't find your stats for baseball, but the basketball team makes over 6 million and profits just about 1.5 million.

Obviously the Tv deals make basketball make more money than baseball, however, regardless the frick of that, Baseball damn sure outdraws basketball, and a hell of a lot more people around here care about baseball than basketball. No shite about the money from tv contracts and all of that, but basketball can't touch baseball here buddy, as far as atmosphere, success, and just a hell of a lot more fun, and THAT is a FACT!
