Focusing on the fact that we didn't pay rent at the dome isn't just not telling the whole story, it's barely even reading the cover. Yes, we didn't pay rent there, but that's more than made up for by the revenue streams that we didn't get from the dome: It was a good deal to give us free rent at the dome, but it was a good deal FOR OTHER PEOPLE.
It's like getting a free car that you need to put in thousands of dollars of repairs to keep it running, it's a bad deal.
The story was about EXPENSES, not total revenue of a program. All I was saying was the story didn't tell the whole story from the UofM's perspective. Probably the only University in the country to play lease free and also not be accountable for any expenses towards upkeep of their stadium. If we were we wouldn't be the bottom of the Big Ten as we were.
