So where do the other non football expenses come from? Vt is able to pull a significant profit yet their net income from football and total AD spending was relatively the same as clemson and their profit from basketball was relatively the same...sounds like they're too much money on Olympic sports to me....reduce spending equals balanced budget? It would be nice if vt could have works class non revenue sports like the Stanfors, FSUs, and Notre Dames of the world, but the fact is they don't have the money to do so, and neither does Clemson
A lot of it had to do with upkeep of the aquatics facility; now that the teams no longer exist, some comes from the recent baseball stadium expansion, but more from the keeping the crew team from having to row with wheels on their boats. Lake Hartwell has been down significantly the past 5-6 years and they continually have to move the course and dredge the course. The ACC Championships have been held there multiple times in the past decade and it ain't cheap to maintain the upkeep. Clemson also pumps a lot of money into the track and field teams.
