Question... How much revenue does a Minnesota, Purdue, or Indiana make each game day when they play a home game?

 

Does anyone know? I tried searching the net and could not find didly.

 

I used these colleges because I consider them to be about even with us in average performance.

 

The reason why I ask is because the Gators bring in $2.5 Million when they play a cupcake team like Wofford, Georgia Southern, or Charleston Southern at home.

I can only imagine how much they make on game day when LSU or UGA comes to town.

 

In any event I doubt that we are netting anywhere close to $1 million a game, let alone $2.5 million when we play a cup cake at RayJay.

I know they haven't done it with the Sun Dome because USF doesn't own it, but another factor to consider in helping to pay off any financing of an OCS is that we could easily sell naming rights for a

I'm not sure, but let me know when you find out, mmkay?  Such a pressing question and I'm sure the answer is quite esoteric.  I commend you for asking the tough questions about a topic that hasn't been broached lately.

I agree its not pressing, but lets cut the turd here... UF gets $2.5 million a game in revenue when they play a cup cake... I bet we don't get $2.5 million a season playing at RayJay.

No need to imagine ... They probably make around $2.5 million.

 

 

 

And ...

I bet we don't either. This is a hard hitting thread you've got going, keep up the research.

Since you brought up UF, how much debt do you think they have on the Swamp?  How much debt would we have with our own OCS?  I assure you it would be a hell of a lot more than UF.

New OCS threads out of thin air = cutting the turd, so anything else after that is redundant.
