The strength of The U of L athletic program. It already generates more revenue thn any other ACC school!
In 2011-12, the latest date available from the Office of Postsecondary Education's Equity in Athletics, Louisville had a budget of $84.4 million. The ACC's highest budget was Florida State ($81.4 million), while Maryland's budget was only $57.5 million.
The Cardinals' basketball program will fit in with the ACC's elite basketball programs. Since the 2004-05 school year, Louisville has reached two Final Fours and two Elite Eights.
Louisville is among four current and future ACC schools that have won 20 or more games in each of the past 10 seasons. Only nine schools in Division I have accomplished that, including Duke, Syracuse and Pittsburgh.
Last year, Louisville averaged 21,503 fans, the nation's third-highest number behind only Syracuse and Kentucky. The city of Louisville also has had the nation's highest rated college basketball television market in each of the past 10 years.
Over the last six years, Louisville is the nation's only school that has reached both the men's and women's basketball Final Four, a BCS bowl game, the College World Series and the Men's Soccer College Cup.

Keith Johnson said:That story has already been retracted wide butt......but I realize it does provide just a minute glimmer of hope to you that Coach Strong might consider leaving; as you have kidded yourself into thinking uk might have a semblance of hope to reverse the onslaught.....sorry wb.....simply not going to happen on either count....but feel free to keep dreamin'......it's really all you've got!

The revenue generated by The U's sports program does not benefit me one bit, neither does Lousyville's revenue benefit YOU, silly hillbilly.
I'm interested only in the excitement a championship football program at The U provides me as a fan of the school.
In short, Hillbilly, I'd rather The U not make a single dollar if it means going as long as Lousyville has gone without winning a National Championship!
84.4 million and not a single National Championship says "we are just so starved for entertainment in this hick town!"
(snickering...) smh
Oh, btw, there's nothing to be jealous about. We have what you don't...to the 5th power!
A U fan being jealous of Louisville is like Donald Trump being jealous of a lemonade stand vendor. (snicker)

Did that 31-10 beat down sting that much?
No...you are Grover.
