Actually “makes more money than anybody” isn’t entirely accurate. While they do generate the most athletic revenue, they do not make the most profit. That title belongs to Texas A&M… and by a wide margin.

But what 18 year old me woulda picked up from what you just said is that UT and their Top 10 classes still couldn't win consistently with multiple HC's so there's a bigger problem somewhere in there. So back to the original point, I would choose A&M if choosing between UT and A&M at this time.

Texas Athletics is a self-sustaining arm of the university – has a total FY 2019-20 budget of $187 million. It fully supports itself and generates revenue for the university’s academic enterprises. It is among the few national athletics programs that receives no revenue from student fees, institutional or state sources. Far from competing with academics or financial aid for resources, Texas Athletics generates resources for students.
In FY 2019-20, Texas Athletics transferred approximately $10.7 million to the university. Similar athletics revenue in previous years allowed the university to eliminate fees for many counseling and mental health services for students. Over the past four years, Texas Athletics has transferred about $40 million, which has been used for a range of purposes benefiting students, including academic programs and chairs, subsidizing student services, and acquiring scholarly and archival materials.
They transferred a little over 12 million to the school this year.
The revenue is spent on the TOTAL athletic budget.

My buddies are telling me the coaching staff is in a “waiting to prove it on the field” attitude and show the kids the turn around instead of just talking about it. That’s a bold strategy and sounds terrible to me.
The only positive is the staff does feel they will be good this year. Hopefully they aren’t to far behind if that happens.

I’m not really concerned with where that revenue or profit goes to. The statement was made that Texas makes more money than anyone else and that’s false. Texas A&M makes twice as much profit with only slightly less revenue generated than Texas(about 0.5% less).
