Like most of Rutgers University’s almost 30,000 undergraduates, Matt Cordeiro has never put on shoulder pads and played football on a Saturday before a sea of scarlet-clad fans.
Yet Rutgers athletic teams cost him [and every other Rutgers student] almost $1,000 this year, the most among schools competing in the top category of college football. The total includes mandatory student fees and university funding of the money-losing sports program, both of which rose more than 40 percent in five years.

But all of the pundits on ESPN keep telling me about all of the money in college sports and how football makes money for the university.
I guess ESPN is too busy sexually harassing the employees to actually commit journalism and learn how athletic programs actually work.
