Indiana University Athletic Department’s 2023 Financial Report shows 5.6 Millon Dollar Surplus <\/strong>
The\u00a0Indiana athletic department\u00a0reported a $5.6 million surplus in the 2023 financial report it submitted to the NCAA.\u00a0 The annual report was provided to The Bloomington Herald-Times in response to a Freedom of Information Act request. The NCAA requires all Division 1 member schools to submit an audited financial report at the end of the year.\u00a0 \u201cAnytime we finish in the black, it\u2019s extremely positive,\u201d Indiana athletic director\u00a0Scott Dolson\u00a0said. \u201cWe have got to really work every year, we are close to break even, so that $5.6 million was a real accomplishment for our department.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

That surplus will help the athletic department fund the upkeep of the many athletic facilities on campus. Part of the 2023 funds will go towards replacing the turf in the Mellencamp Pavilion this spring. Last year, the athletic department replaced the turf on one of the outdoor practice fields.  \u201cWe want to create enough capital to fund those things on a timely basis,” Dolson said. “One of the toughest things to budget for is R&R (renewals and replacements). It\u2019s really hard if you want to put a new roof or put in new turf or resurface the track. All those things are extremely costly and easy to put off in some ways if you can\u2019t fund them, but they are critical.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last year, Indiana ranked No. 13 nationally in total revenue ($166.7 million), but t<\/a>hat was largely due to a one-time $150 million gift from the IU Foundation that helped the university offset losses from the pandemic. The school transferred $38 million of the foundation’s gift to the athletic department. It was recorded in the 2022 financial report among the $61.2 million in donor contributions the department received.  Indiana reported $144.7 million in operating revenues in 2023 including $24.5 million in ticket sales, $19.6 million in donor contributions and $47.8 million from media rights distributions. The media rights distributions were nearly identical to last year\u2019s numbers, but the department\u2019s overall ticket sales were up from 2022 ($21.2 million) and pre-pandemic levels.  Indiana men\u2019s basketball ticket sales ($12.2 million) outpaced the football team ($10.3 million) by nearly $2 million. The revenue from program, novelty, parking and concession sales was nearly identical for the programs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Indiana\u2019s 2023 financial report doesn\u2019t include the buyout for former football coach Tom Allen, or the money owed to his former assistants. The school negotiated Allen\u2019s buyout down to $15.5 million and paid out in two equal installments, but those funds were distributed during the 2024 fiscal year.  The FY2023 includes the last six months of 2022 and first six months of 2023.  \u201cWe have gifts coming in over time,\u201d Dolson said, of those expenses. \u201cWe\u2019re taking out a loan for the immediate expenses. What it will show (next year) is higher expenses, but also an influx of a loan that we will be paying off over time with donor funds and operating money we put towards that.” \u201cIt should not affect a profit or a loss. It should be a wash in fiscal year 2024.\u201d  Much of what Indiana owed to Allen\u2019s coaching staff has been offset by those assistants finding jobs elsewhere. The athletic department has a standard mitigation clause in their assistant coach contracts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Indiana\u2019s listed $10.4 million in expenses to non-program specific athletic facilities debt service, leases and rental fee is the outstanding loans for recent major completed projects such as Wilkinson Hill, Assembly Hall renovation and the South End Zones. The university pays off the loan as it receives the annual pledges for those projects, according to Dolson.  Indiana\u2019s football team accounted for $34.1 million of those expenses and the men\u2019s basketball team had $17 million in expenses.  The rest of Indiana\u2019s athletic teams operate at a $34.9 million deficit, with the women\u2019s basketball program bringing in $1.2 million against $7.3 million in expenses and the other sports reporting $5.1 million in revenue with $31.3 million in expenses.  Indiana has 24 total teams (13 women\u2019s programs) with 703 student-athletes (499 of them receive scholarship money), according to the report. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Three Indiana University Baseball players on the Big Ten Preseason Players to Watch List <\/strong>
Ahead of the start of the 2024 college baseball season on Friday, the Big Ten released its Preseason Players to Watch and Big Ten Preseason Coaches’ Poll, as announced on Wednesday afternoon. Per a selection by head coach\u00a0Jeff Mercer, sophomore pitcher\u00a0Connor Foley, sophomore outfielder\u00a0Devin Taylor and junior catcher\u00a0Brock Tibbitts received nods as Big Ten Players to Watch. Each team in the conference featured three selected players.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Foley was outstanding for the Hoosiers as a freshman, using his plus fastball to his advantage as an important piece in the backend of the bullpen. The Jasper, Ind. native finished 4-2 on the season with a 3.72 earned run average while striking out 42 batters in 20 appearances. He will have the ability to stay as a high-profile closer or transition to a weekend starter for the Hoosiers in 2024. Foley helps make up a strong contingent of sophomore pitchers that also features Brayden Risedorph and Ethan Phillips.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Taylor, the Big Ten Freshman of the Year, helped lead an outstanding offensive attack for IU in 2023. The Cincinnati, Ohio native hit .315 across 55 games while producing 16 home runs and an IU freshman record 59 RBI’s. Ahead of 2024, Taylor has been named a unanimous selection for Preseason Big Ten Player of the Year and was a Preseason Second Team All-American by Perfect Game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tibbitts, a mainstay in IU’s lineup since 2022, is as consistent as they come on the field. A .357 hitter in 2023 and a career .314 hitter in college, the 6-foot-4 Ohio native is one of the best all-around talents in the entire conference. He will transition back to his natural position behind the plate but will also rotate into a platoon of players at first base, providing a veteran defensive presence at both positions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Big Ten coaches also made preseason selections for the top-six finishers in the conference. IU was voted second in the league’s preseason poll behind Iowa, a consensus top-25 pick to begin the year. Maryland, Rutgers, Nebraska and Michigan rounded out the top-six teams. IU will face four of the five fellow members of the Big Ten Preseason Poll in the regular season this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Former Indiana University Swimming Coach Dennis Dale selected for CSCAA Lifetime Achievement Award <\/strong>
Former Indiana swimming and diving assistant coach Dennis Dale has been named the recipient of the 2024 CSCAA Lifetime Achievement Award, the coaches association announced this week. The award, selected by the CSCAA’s Board of Directors, recognizes individuals whose efforts best exemplify the integrity and ideals of collegiate swimming and who has achieved significant success in the sport while imparting the educational and character-building qualities of the collegiate swimming experience. Dale will be recognized at the 63rd Annual CSCAA College Swimming & Diving Awards on May 6, in Indianapolis. “I credit Dennis Dale for establishing our sprint group culture and success over the last 10 years,” IU head swimming coach\u00a0Ray Looze\u00a0said. “Additionally, he mentored our swimmers on how to win relays at a high level from a tactical standpoint.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After serving as head coach of the Minnesota swimming and diving program from 1985-2014 and winning six Big Ten Coach of the Year awards in Minneapolis, Dale became the associate head coach at Indiana in 2014 and concluded his coaching career in 2017. Dale was an expert sprint coach and contributed to success of Olympian Blake Pieroni, among others. “I have the utmost respect for Dennis Dale as a coach, and I know that is true amongst the entire swim community,” Pieroni said. “I loved showing up to practices because I knew Dennis would have jokes for us, and he would always give me his extremely candid feedback. “My favorite quote from Dennis is ‘Let’s go out there and have fun \u2026 I have the most fun when we’re winning, so let’s win.’ I love Dennis’ passion and knowledge for the sport of swimming, and I can’t think of anyone more qualified for this award.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
