Abstract
Since the 1990s, various readings about financial matters of sports programs at colleges and universities—schools or institutions—have appeared in the literature. Besides publications in magazines, newspapers, professional and trade journals, and on Internet websites, an increasing number of accountants, economists, historians, and other scholars research data and then author articles, books, reports, and studies that reveal how competitive, popular, and valuable sports events, facilities, and teams are at schools in higher education. In addition, scholars analyze the roles, strategies, and failure or success of former and current athletic directors and coaches, and discuss the academic and athletic performances of their student athletes particularly in football and basketball.
