Showed up in the mail... Here are the highlights:
- Football season ticket sales were down for the third straight year in 2017, from what I've heard 2018 will continue this trend.
- Baseball attendance and revenue was down in 2018, not surprising
- Men's basketball was up on better attendance, revenue was only up slightly thanks to the two-year ticket price strategy we put in place. I anticipate ticket prices are going to start jumping next season (2019-2020)
- Athletic department revenue was up again, record $28.3mm... Growth in all areas except ticket sales, concessions, and GoFrogs.com revenue.
- IMG (advertising/licensing) had a strong year, as did the TCU Team Store.
Frog Club
- We had a little over $13mm in contributions, which I believe did not cover all scholarship costs.
- Total athletics giving was $29.7mm, down again for the third year. I believe the continued YoY drop is due to many of the large gifts from prior years falling off after their 5 year schedules... I'm thinking these were tied to the Scholl project and AGC.
- With the upcoming stadium project about to kick off, we should see these numbers jump again starting in 2018-2019.
Overall, the athletic department is doing fine, but we need to continue to grow revenue.
