Home to one of the most successful athletics departments in the country, it won???t come as much of a surprise that Texas spends megabucks on its intercollegiate athletics program. The university has one of the lone departments to actually turn a profit in the expensive world of college sports.

A recent package in the Austin American-Statesman discussed the finances of Texas athletics, reporting that the department will spend more than $100 million during this academic year, more than twice its expenses of just six years ago. The university spends more than $200,000 to support each of its student-athletes.

On today???s edition of Mondays With Myles, NCAA President Myles Brand discusses the rate of growth in intercollegiate athletics and explains the economics of college sports.
