Not including TV deals, merchandise etc that create revenue outside of ticket sales.
That's why the bball school numbers appear so low.
It's just cherry picking, but who really cares at this point.
Why else would a school like Iowa be listed alongside Ohio State.
In reality the schools aren't even close in value.

Pretty sure that list is total revenue including TV revenue, because if it wasn't, there is no way in hell the Big 10 basketball schools would be ahead of Kansas. But most of the Big 10 basketball revenues are actually higher than Kansas. The only thing I don't think it takes into account is the Williams Fund. A large majority of the ticket revenue is not actually on that list and is privately accounted for from what I am told. Don't know many other schools that do it that way except UNC.
You are correct about the 3rd tier network Kansas has. I'm astounded it's worth as much as it is televising shitty games against Fort Hayes State.
