How is this calculated?  Profitability? Current roster or the program as a whole?  I'm lost...

"Brewer's data predicts what these college basketball teams would be worth if they were sold like a pro franchise, taking into account "revenues and cash flows while making financial projections about the team's sustainability."

These are simply figures, per Brewer, and actual value could be considerably higher on the open market."

That's impressive if true and wondering how this is measured. I've long been discussing buying stock in college and academy sports if they would just admit what they are, a business... and let people publicly speculate.

I just find it silly that Ohio State is drastically ahead of Kentucky and Kansas. Although tOSU has a large fanbase, the other two schools live and breathe basketball.

Perhaps a form of laundering for them since their Football players cost over $20 Million this year alone.
