A look at several different money-related items for Big Ten schools. Northwestern does not provide data as it is a private school and Penn State is exempt from FOIA requests due to Pennsylvania's Right to Know policy. Also, Wisconsin has yet to respond with their data.

Also when it comes to revenue side of things, Nebraska, Maryland and Rutgers are not yet receiving a full share of conference monies yet.
