UNC grows athletics budget to $61M; NCSU at $46M
Posted Nov 4, 2008

Athletics Director Dick Baddour believes his budget projections will hold up well because of strong ticket and advertising sales heading into the football and basketball seasons. Long term, though, he’s worried about fundraising for scholarships and facilities.
