WSJ article lists top 50 mens teams worth if they were on the open market (based on revenues, expenses, growth etc). Louisville number 1 at 301mm, UNC at 7 at $221mm, Miami, FSU, Arizona State at 48-50 spots at around $44mm. Georgetown not on list. Big East teams are Xavier at 26 (78mm) St Johns at 37 at $55mm. South florida is at 31 at $67mm above Florida at 41 ($50mm) interestingly enough. Hard to "trust" their calcs but food for thought.. Wonder if this was 1996 what this would look like? And where UCONN women would rank on this list? www.wsj.com/articles/how-much-is-your-college-basketball-team-worth-1459459516 |

We are 52 (so just out of the top 50) and ahead of Nova (54). Interestingly, we're just behind DePaul, which seems crazy, but I'm guessing they really value the fact that DePaul is getting a new arena. Are there any teams in the top 50 that don't play at least a healthy number of games in a school-owned facility? Any others besides St. John's that don't play virtually all of their games in their own arena? There may be, but none jumped out at me. And obviously, the TV landscape has changed dramatically since 1996 (and 1985).... I don't think the UConn women would be as high as you think. They didn't sell out their games this year; their TV deal isn't too high. I don't think their revenues are as high as you might think. |
