non-revenue producing sport
The potential to produce revenue is there. Make a profit?? NO. Produce a few hundred thousand dollars a year? ABSOLUTELY. In rough terms, if you increase attendance by 1000 per game (which is NOT unheard of here...it has happened), you can bring in about $200,000 in revenue which is enough to pay for a good coach. Do the math...1000 people at $8 per ticket over 15 games = $120,000. Those people are going to eat concessions and buy souvenirs, so $200,000 extra revenue that you didn't have before is not out of the question.

If LSU spends close to a million dollars for a women's baseketball coach then it's likely the TAF fees for football will continue to skyrocket.
I hate this mentality.

Agreed. Costs to the ticket holders went from cheep to middle of the road compared to other SEC schools.
