Correction, from the Associated Press:
In a story Aug. 23 about spending in college athletics, The Associated Press, relying on a researcher working for the NCAA, reported erroneously that Florida, Ohio State and Tennessee were among the 14 Football Bowl Subdivision schools that made money from campus athletics in the 2009 fiscal year. The researcher now says athletic expenses exceeded revenue at those three universities, and federal records confirmed it.

I take it that there were three others — or are we down to 11?

I’ve been madly Googling to figure that out, Mr Punch. Bizarre of AP not to clarify that. I’d have to assume we’re down to 11… But we’ll see.

Bear in mind, in any case, that Ohio State has something like 38 varsity sports – hard to break even under those circumstances.
