It's clear those girls would do anything for their coach and fans. I can only hope to emulate some of the things Bill does when coaching. Our girls should not have been competitive in that game or a few others with all the injuries sustained.

That game woke me up and we will absolutely be attending a few WBB games this winter. It's a shame I have not been to one in about 5 years.

I would also like to thank whoever put the lid on the basket on the last shot that went allllllll the way around......and out!

With everyone back and the new recruits they have coming in, this year should be a great year, in terms of wins and attendance. Wish I was there.

Does anyone know for sure if our women's bball team operates in the red or black finanacially?

**Rogue52** · 06-13-2008, 12:48 PM

Does the Woman's Basketball program turn a profit?

Edit: I guess I should have read the whole thread. Someone already asked.

Incorrect Information

I and a buddy were watching it on channelsurfing.net in class. Every time they were coming back we'd have to stifle ourselves. The prof finally asked what was going on and then kept asking for scoring updates

ISU women's basketball doesn't turn a profit.

NCAA Financial Reports Database | IndyStar.com

I think the Indy Star database is from 2004-2005.

You can find the latest reports at:

Equity in Athletics

I can't find a way to link to schools directly, so you have to go through the little search process to find Iowa State, and then navigate to the Revenue and Expenses page...

OpenDNS

We'll see if that link'll work.

So if I'm reading the info from the link jbh posted correctly, WBB breaks even

**keepngoal** · 06-13-2008, 01:31 PM

1.8M in cost, 2.4M in rev.

That report looks goofy to me...how do the women's sports other than WBB generate over $5 million in revenue? Maybe I'm reading that wrong...

They very well may generate that much revenue, but how much are expenses?

I don't read it that way...the $1.8M in cost is combined MBB/WBB.

However, if you compare the top summary revenue table with the bottom summary expense table, WBB exactly breaks even ($2,416,813 in both expenses and revenue).

Again, this report seems kind of funny. Maybe somebody here can explain it...
