Is the goal to turn a profit or support SA's? How did Michigan invest in the future of their athletic programs in those years?
If
OSU breaks even (or comes close*) despite massive investments in the future of athletics, that's a great accomplishment. No school supports more SA's in their pursuit of education and athletics, while the vast majority are a drain on the AD's bottom line. Profit or SA's?
A large portion of
these facilities were built in the last decade. Pure speculation, but I'd imagine the large-ticket upgrades will slow down a bit.

OSU's in that time-span? Y'all were in the black and red in those years.

* - I can't seem to find the graphic now, but there was a dispatch graphic which showed
OSU broke even or had a minor profit in those years, save one (which was < $2 mill, I think).
