I would like to see a break down of cost vs revenue of each individual sport that schools offer not just the entire athletic department.

I'm somewhat surprised that the subsidized portion of the Power 5 conferences has climbed up to 5 percent. The season tickets may increase with a few of the schools such as Tennessee who right now only charge $410.00 per game for a bleacher seat and just $435.00 for non-bleacher seats. Most individual season ticket purchases come with a built-in donation of $500.00, which again, is pretty low for a Power 5 school. I think they can afford to keep football prices so low because of their basketball programs success, both men and women. Contrast those prices with what I used to pay for four season ticket at MSU. 
I was able to attend all six home games for about what I paid for a single game while in the South--with my entire family.
