Minnesota Gopher Ave. Total Cost Per Football Player

The Minnesota Star's has an interesting story on the average cost of a student playing football at the University of Minnesota - which is almost $200,000 per year.  Whether this is a lot or not depends on the amount generated in terms of revenues for the football team, and revenues from football were greater than expenses - so while this may seem high, economically this expense is well under the average revenue per student playing football.
