According to a report from USAToday, the Big12 Conference pulled in a record amount of money in the 2017 fiscal year (ending June 30th, 2017), totaling $371 million. Dispersed among the ten schools, each would receive, on average, $34.3 million. That's up over $57 million for the league as a whole, and nearly $6 million per school from the previous period.



That $34.3 million is nearly $7 million less than what the SEC received for the 2017 year, but does not include Tier 3 monies. For West Virginia, that is an extra $8-10 million per year. Federal tax returns for the SEC, Big Ten, and Pac12 have not yet been released.

You are only including television revenue that is only 1/4 of the revenue

Where a lot of schools increase the gap is royalties
Schools in the SEC like Kentucky, Bama and 10RC sell a lot of merchandise

WVU needs up find away to brand themselves a lot better in their state
WVU is not that the much smaller than Mississippi and Louisiana but the difference is paramount in the pull

Before displaying your obvious lack of knowledge, you should do some research and look where WVU stands in merchandising sales. Not bad for a state of less than two million.

Per a post on HerdiotNation, the new TV contract that CtheUSA signed with CBS Sports will net our friend in Huntington a whopping $400K/YEAR. It doubled from $200K/year.

WVU in terms of revenue is doing much better than before but they still are behind a lot of teams in other categories including merchandise sales
