Given you can lose a lot more on a bowl game, I consider losing 50k to 70k on a tournament where we can sell the brand and winning basketball a small cost. Assuming we win, you can sell "CBI tournamen

50k members is way off. We don't even have 50k members in the association. I would guess there's a couple thousand alumni in the Chicago area. That chapter has done some great work over the past

Not so fast....

My wife is adamant about attending tonight's game. She even rocked a USF shirt to work. 

Sorry @Triple B love before basketball.  

Cannot argue with the happy wife, happy life outlook............... she just damned well better be happy leaving the game.

Surprising to me that a tournament that basically loses you money is mostly small schools that really can't afford the expenses as easily as a power 5 conference school can.

At $17 a ticket even with 3384 through 2 games we had $57,528 in just ticket sales.  USF has done fine during this tournament.

Not to be a downer, but 3384 was distributed tickets including comps and students.  I'll bet we sold a max of 2500 tickets at an average of $14.50 (tickets were $17 and $12) for a total of $36,000.  Still not bad for this type of pay tournament with teams ranked over 90 or 100 out of 351.

GO BULLS!
