With a men’s basketball Sweet 16 appearance and five Big Ten tournament championships, the Maryland athletic department’s revenue increased in 2015-16, though it still ranks behind most conference foes.
Maryland made $94,101,697 in total revenue for the year, according to the athletic department revenue database USA Today released Thursday.
The Terps are No. 36 out of 230 schools listed and 11th of the Big Ten’s 13 public universities. Northwestern, a private school, wasn’t included.
USA Today calculated each school’s total revenue from six categories.
Maryland made money from ticket sales ($16,493,833), outside contributions ($13,676,004), rights/licensing ($46,175,076), student fees ($11,630,126), school funds ($3,789,312) and other aspects, such as game guarantees and TV income ($2,337,346).
