"These lists are the P5 schools (again, public only) and I included the AAC and MWC as they are the home to most of the expansion "contenders".

As I suggested earlier, I feel like the "Contributions" (which includes large single donations and fundraising campaigns for major construction) and the "Subsidy" (including fees charged to students and funds that the university mus take on) categories tend to distort this list when looking at overall revenue.  These are things that can either very wildly from year to year, or, in the case of subsidies, not the ideal way you want to be financing your athletic department.  That's not to say huge donations and fundraising campaigns don't indicate a high level of health for your AD - it's just that on a year-to-year basis, it is hard to compare among institutions.  See Oregon - who dropped from #1 last year to #21 this year.

So what are we left with?  Ticket Sales and Rights/Licensing.  How you do at the gate, locally and how you (and by association, your conference) does as a branding and media content at a larger level."
